#1 How come the IDF can mass 25,000 troops/cops to fight their own people, but they cant stop Hamas from walking across the border and blowing up the same people?

#2 Cause the pro-settler protesters are trying to move en masse, in order to make the pullout more difficult. A hamas suicide bomber is a single individual moving stealthily (even so they catch quite a bunch). If the settler protesters were just trying to get one guy into Gaza, that would be a lot harder to stop - but what would be the point?
