1. Sheer suicide to trust any arab agreement on smuggling.

2.  Egypt seizes rockets near Gaza
PAPO ,   USA   (01.04.13)
And you believe Them !
3. Why Would Egypt Seize DEFENSIVE Weapons
Doug ,   Rochester   (01.05.13)
headed to Gaza? There is no region in the world that is more in need of defensive anti-tank and anti-aircraft weapons than Gaza. These weapons might make Israel think twice before their next tank or aircraft incursion into Gaza.
4. 3. My sentiments exactly
(01.05.13)
If US can supply Israel illegal occupation in violations of some 250UN resolutions with $$bil. in state of the art weapons why should Israel begrudge Gaza what little weaponry they manage to source from Libya.
5. To Doug from Rochester
David ,   Washington, DC   (01.05.13)
You're a complete fool born out of the current frenzy of UK leftist media propaganda. Have you ever been to Israel? Suggest you go, review the situation on the ground for yourself and then maybe your comments may hold some value. Until then keep your pathetic little comments to yourself.
6. Gaza needs to be liberated from Hamas
Chaim Ben Kahan ,   Efrat, Israel   (01.05.13)
There is no chance for peace to occur as long as Hamas terrorist occupy Gaza. The withdrawal from Gaza was a historic mistake, the only bigger mistake was withdrawing from the Sinai.
7. #1 Absolutely agreed
Get Real ,   UK   (01.05.13)
#2 We can expect occassional annoucements from Egypt that it has prevented the odd arms smuggling. This enhances its status with the US and shows Israel it is trying to prevent the flow of arms.But in the meantime they allow the tunnels to function and Hamas to rebuild its weapons stocks.This keeps Hamas and the MB happy. So the picture has not changed and in time the next round of Hamas terror attacks will unleash those weapons on Israel. It always comesback to israels security being in Israels hands.

graczek ,   Maryland, USA   (01.05.13)
My sentiments exactly! Makes one wonder whose side Egypt is on and what game Egypt may be playing. Well, as to Israel, soon, Chuck Hagel will be Secretary of Defense and, together with our President, will deal the Zionist-Jewish lobby one telling body blow from which it may never recover.
9. 6 Dumbo Hamas is the legitimate rep.
lydia ,   Brisbane   (01.06.13)
Hamas an Israeli spawn was elected in a US supervised election. Repeated attempts by Israel and USA to rout them and replace Fatah have failed. Hamas forced the withdraw from Gaza and after the recent failure of Pillars of BS you have buckley's chance.
