Israeli aircraft strike Gaza

2007-01-30

JERUSALEM - Israeli aircraft struck a tunnel on the border with the Gaza Strip early Tuesday, hours after a Palestinian suicide bomber killed three people in the Red Sea resort of Eilat, a military spokesman said. Palestinians were preparing to use it to commit an attack in Israel, the spokesman said of the tunnel located near the Karni border post, the main crossing point for goods traffic between Israel and the Gaza Strip.

"Mahmoud, you sure it's okay down here in the tunnel?"
"Relax, Achmed, those stupid Zionists will never suspect ...."

#10 Actually, Excalibur, Israel has been negotiation the return of Palestinians to their historic homeland for some time. However, Beelzebub have proved to be a very refractory negotiator.

#9 Driving these Jordanians and Egyptians back to Jordan and Egypt strikes me as an even better compromise.

#7 Politically not responding at all would be difficult, and, it could be argued would send a wrong message of weakness. And its not like Olmert can get up and say "we dont need to hit them cause Mo Dahlan is doing our work for us" You almost need to hit to maintain the fiction that Israel does NOT have a stake in the Pal festivities. At the same time you want a hit thats not going to distract from those festivities. Hitting a tunnel seems like a decent compromise.

#6 Still a bad idea to damage an enemy that's playing lotto. Perhaps the Jooooooooos pushed a couple hundred crates of 7.62 to the weaker side to make up.

#5 cease fire = resupply
fragile cease fire = reloading and only shooting women, children, and men who love their families
cease fire talks = uh oh, we been shooting at da boss
cease fire in place = now we can get some money from our supporters and resupply

#4 JPost last night was reporting that there was at least a couple of secondary explosions in the tunnel. Sounds like them crafty Joooos had some good intel.

#3 Jeez, I fear you are right ed. But consider that the joooooooooos may not want to interfere with the fragile trucefire in the region.
