I’m sure a lot of people would love to bomb the BBC out of existence but that might be hard.

I really don’t mean the BBC. The comment i responded was comparing the ease of shutting down the internet to the supposed hardness of shutting down amateur radio transmissions.

If you were in Gaza and in posession of a radio amateur set would you dare to turn it on? I woudln’t. I would be too affraid that would lead to a strike on my location. Besides with what fuel to power the radio?
