#1 Ah yes, the deadly porous border. Not sieve like, not permeable mind you but porous. Yep. It's easy. BTW, what's the topography of New Orleans? Yep, it's still Bowl-like. And yes the levess were porous.

#2 Israel would be best served by washing their hands of Gaza and the crossing with Egypt. Why they try to maintain any pro forma activity at all is almost a mystery.

Hamas is in de facto control of the Paleos in Gaza, and remain so solely at the patience of the Egyptians. The Israelis have no more say in their electoral exclusion then they do about most everything in Paleo-land.

The best bet as far as the Israelis is concerned would be to reinforce the wall, set up anti-mortar and anti-rocket lasers, then let the Egyptians and Hamas come to an agreement, as it were. This would probably involve a lot fewer Hamas walking around.

#3 It's going to be death-zone-like if Hosni thinks it will even threaten to become a problem

#4 Are we talking about the same Gaza that recently changed its status to a freefire zone?

#5 Ship I thought we went over this already, and that the topography of New Orleans was more like a paint roller tray than a bowl?

#6 So you say Phil. Been on TeeVee? I hear it's Bowl-shaped. It's bowl shaped with porous levees which caused a slugish national response.
