Multiple news outlets are reporting on a rather strange story concerning a “tank” on display during a funeral rally for seven dead Hamas militants. Video of the event prominently features what appears to be a somewhat unconvincing replica of an Israeli Merkava 4 MBT. According to the news stories, the speaker at the event claims that it is a captured and rebuilt Israeli tank, a claim that is rather dubious considering that the vehicle in question appears to be riding on wheels hidden behind the tracks.

Ha, ha! I thought I’d heard all the good jokes and then you come along and burst my bubble!
As for the Hamas “tank”, maybe the IDF should drop a wooden bomb on it?
On a serious note; I got to see the Merkava MK II and III up close as an infantryman in the 1980s and early 1990s; they are beautiful beasts, if one can say that about a machine.
