Tunnels in Switzerland wouldn't be all that useful to Hamas, and those particular tunnels are very heavily instrumented - Israel could probably tap the data stream and work out exactly when and where Hamas was planning to pop out and work some mischief (not that they work much mischief in Switzerland). Tom Holt invented the portable door https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Portable_Door and perhaps John Larkin thinks that CERN exploited the same technology to create its tunnel. He certainly soaks up all the fiction published by the climate change denial propaganda machine. -- Bill Sloman, Sydney
