Josephus mentioned these in his writings. If they are the escape tunnels, there should be a treasure trove of valuables the Jews lost trying to get them out of Jerusalem before the Romans sacked the city. Even the sewage area has the potential for some real artifacts since many Jews swallowed their valuables before leaving the city.

Wow, anyone read Joel Rosenberg's latest book???

The guy seems to have quite an interesting history in regard to his novels.

In his first book he wrote about a hijacked jet, coming in on a kamikaze attack into an American city. He wrote it 9 months before 911.

As the story unfolded a US President was in a war with Saddam Hussein over weapons of mass destruction.

His second novel, The Last Days opened with an attack on a US Diplomatic convoy heading into Gaza, the death of Yasser Arafat and radical Islamic terrorist trying to take over the West Bank and Gaza. Two weeks before it was published a US Diplomatic convoy was attacked in Gaza. Thirteen months after it was published Arafat died and Hamas took command of the West Bank and Gaza.

In his third novel, The Ezekiel Option, a dictator rises to power in Russia, an Iranian leader vows to annihilate Israel. On the day the novel came out Iran elected thenutjob who vowed to wipe Israel off the map, and Putin made a deal to sell Iran $1 billion worth of military weapons.

His last novel The Copper Scrolls, tells of the hunt for the hidden treasures of the Temple Mount. They find all sorts of treasure in the tunnels, including the Arc of the Covenant

I hope this wakes them up to the fact of what ancient overlords did to them. They are getting in the same situation again, only this time with the entire middle east looking to sack them.

How can you say it’s not speculation?
How do you know this isn’t the tunnel the locals used to use to go to the loo?

The discovery of the drainage channel was momentous in itself, a sign of how the city's rulers looked out for the welfare of their citizens by organizing a system that drained the rainfall and prevented flooding, Reich said.

The discovery "shows you planning on a grand scale, unlike other cities in the ancient Near East,"

Unlike some cities in Louisiana who will remain nameless.

Newly Discovered Tunnel May Once Have Carried Dead Sea Scrolls
by Norman Golb
Wednesday October 24, 2007
Reports have described the discovery, by a team led by Ronny Reich and Eli Shukron, of an "escape hatch" or "drainage tunnel" under the main street of ancient Jerusalem... two weeks earlier, archaeologists discovered the tunnel while searching for the city's main road. Shukron is quoted as saying that workmen engaged in the search "happened upon a small drainage channel that led to the discovery of the massive tunnel." The same report states that "the walls of the tunnel ... reach a height of 10 feet in some places," and a photograph of the site would appear to confirm that... According to the large group of stories based on the AP report, "Archaeologists think the tunnel leads to the Kidron River, which empties into the Dead Sea." The Nahal (or Wadi) Qidron does indeed lead eastward to the sea, but about halfway toward that body of water it bifurcates, the one main branch, under the same name, continuing east-southeast to the sea -- while the other bends slightly northward and, bearing the name of Nahal (or Wadi) Qumran, leads to Khirbet Qumran and was the main source feeding the large water-reservoirs that distinguish this site. The report of the Israel Antiquities Authority, focusing on the items found in the tunnel, states: "pottery shards ... and coins from the end of the Second Temple period, prior to the destruction of Jerusalem by the Romans in ... 70 C.E., were discovered in the channel."
