Yeah, imagine if all the taxpayer money he got to build a useless tunnel in Vegas was spent on something, you know, useful.

What's sad is, we will never see musk supporters come out and admit they were wrong. They are all gung-ho before the money changes hands, then when the grift happens and we have nothing to show for it, they all ~disappear~.

Hamas has built more tunnels than Musk. Let that sink in.

I've built more tunnels than his company.

And most of those were just fucking around because I could, not even for a specific purpose.

Lpt: don't dig without telling someone exactly where you are,and without a noise maker.

Hamas is rather good at building tunnels in the hostile environment of sometimes being bombed. If they'd have funds and modern tech ... ah, well, they'd embezzle the funds and use that tech for something destructive, but if they wouldn't, they'd be great tunnel makers.
