#3 brer rabbit has it right - theyre arming for civil war, I think.

Its up to Abbas and the Egyptians to stop this, or face the consequences when Gaza explodes. (Egyptian troops apparently found an arms smuggling tunnel today - whoda thunk it) Either way, Israel is well rid of the place. And has a valid reason to keep the crossings from Gaza into Israel shut, as long as smuggling from Egypt to Gaza takes place.

TW - dunno ;)

#4 brer rabbit has it right - theyre arming for civil war, I think.

An unfortunate, but effective, way to take care of the imaginary overcrowding problem. (Not long ago Israel statisticians discovered that the Palestinian population was missing well over 1 million assumed offspring. Bullets only hit real people, or so I've been told.)

#8 Beautiful. A lawless state with a psycho population and easy access to cheap firepower.
Israel's the least of their problems.

#9 ...And let me be the first to blame Bush for the upcoming civil war. KBR mind control satellites will be used to set Paleo on Paleo. Bush hates the Paleo people. If there was a dike nearby he would blow it up.

hehehe

#10 Well I'm glad to see the traditional economy picking up so folks in Gaza can get on with their lives and live peacefully. The PA will probably seek immediate legislation to subsidize ak47 and rpg purchases so every muck in Gaza can live life to it's fullest free from overpriced small arms. It's gonna be wonderful I am sure.

#11 And yet, amidst the corruption, lawlessness, incompetence, self preservation and the unbridled ambitions of each faction, this inevitable civil war will be blamed on the Jews.

And not just by paleos, either. There's nothing Israel can do or say that will allow it to be viewed favorably on the world stage. Israel simply needs to do what is in its best interest. No one else will, obviously.

So I say, keep building the wall. Keep disengaging. Keep making unilateral decisions that perserve the sanctity of Israel.

Oh. and keep an eye on Iran.

#12 At least we know where Hollywood will film their next post-Apocalypse picture. Armed extras are so cheap.
