Sarcastic Berlin 'terror tunnel' quip mocks Israel's tunnel justifications
Original: RE: https:// mastodon.social/@patricksudlow /117423636690515646 🗨️ Hooray! # germany has terror tunnels too! \ö/ # berli
A Berlin social media user sarcastically cheered that Germany now has 'terror tunnels' too, mocking Israel's practice of citing Hamas tunnels to justify military action. The commenter joked they hoped the 'Israeli idiocy' was not contagious, saying they would worry if someone at a German market wrapped vegetables in the Bild newspaper, riffing on reports of explosives hidden in vegetable sacks.
Why now: Sarcasm about Israel's tunnel-related justifications for strikes is circulating as the Gaza war continues to dominate debate
