Palestinians there laying mines and explosive âdaisy chainsâ and setting RPG ambush traps. While awash with explosives, Rafah terrorists running low on ammunition.

#2 For a Really Good photo essay of what is going on in Fafah, I have attached a URL to the BBC. I know that it is the BBC but the photos tell the story and is remarkably sympathetic to Israel.

Just good stuff for your review if you wish.

#4 If all males 16 and up have to turn themselves in, then anyone remaining on the streets are armed combatants, regardless of what Rooters wants to call them, and I'd go further even and call them "dead" soon

#5 I would hazard a guess that the IDF is thinking the same thing Frank.
