AFP: Israel says Hamas got hi-tech weapons in border breach
-----------------------------------------------------
Excerpt

JERUSALEM (AFP) — The head of Israel's domestic intelligence agency said on Sunday that "massive" amounts of sophisticated weaponry had been brought into Gaza during the protracted breach of its border with Egypt.

"Over the past days, massive amounts of weapons were moved into Gaza," a senior Israeli official quoted Yuval Diskin, the head of the Shin Beth internal security agency, as telling the weekly cabinet meeting.

"As far as we know, these were weapons of high quality, including long-range rockets, anti-tank and anti-aircraft missiles and other rocket-manufacturing materials that are usually much harder to bring into Gaza," he said.


"These people have accumulated a great deal of knowledge and were trained in Iran and other places and are now expected to contribute to the improvement of "terrorist" activities in Gaza," he said.

Not sure if this report is to be trusted, because it could easily be still more "justification" for mass punishment.

I was thinking the same thing. A Mossad psy-ops plant with the ever reliable 'it's Iran's fault' thrown in for good measure.

That's not to say it isn't true, but in a world where governments lie more often than they tell the truth, suspicion is warranted.

I was going to say the same thing but in a much more sarcastic and cynical way. Yours gets the point across though.

Weird.... violently shakes head

Anyway! It's obvious the hardliners in Israel's government will use any excuse to go on oppressing Palestinians and our government will take any excuse and shell out more blank checks.

I imagine this poor fool will spend the rest of his life in a Israeli jail for smuggling these weapons back into Gaza to..........

Possibly launching lion & monkey attacks into southern Israel endangering the poor settlers...........

Palestinian tries to sneak lion, monkey into Gaza

ISMAILIA, Egypt (Reuters) - While thousands of Palestinians flooded into Egypt to stock up on food, fuel and other staples after Islamist militants breached the border, one man bought a lion cub and a monkey to smuggle back home.

The man managed to reach Cairo and buy the animals despite a heavy security cordon, but police caught him at a checkpoint as he tried to sneak them back into Gaza in a small truck carrying furniture, security officials told Reuters on Saturday.

They said the man, whom they did not identify, confessed to wanting to sell the cub and monkey in Gaza.

Hamas, the Islamist militant group that controls the Gaza Strip, blew holes in the border wall in Egypt on Jan. 23 in defiance of an Israeli-led blockade.

The group agreed on Saturday to Egyptian calls to control the flow of Palestinians through the border and said it expected Cairo to seal the remaining gaps in the frontier wall.
