Barbarians at the Gates

Israeli crossing guards.

"Hamas stages blasts at Gaza gate"

"by Griff Witte, Washington Post | April 20, 2008

JERUSALEM - Hamas suicide bombers detonated two explosives-laden vehicles at a key crossing between Israel and the Gaza Strip yesterday morning, wounding 13 Israeli soldiers in an attack the army described as unusually sophisticated.

The bombing, under the cover of morning fog and just hours before the start of the Passover holiday, was the fifth strike at a Gaza border crossing in recent weeks.

Suspicious indeed!

A Hamas spokesman vowed that there would be "worse to come" as the group released video apparently showing the faces of three attackers before the assault....

Israeli officials say attacks such as yesterday's show that the group is trying to provoke a crisis in Gaza by striking at the territory's lifelines.

Seeing as the Israeli officials said that, I'm inclined to believe the opposite.

Therefore, WHO is RESPONSIBLE for the "attacks?"

All goods coming in and out of Gaza must be approved by Israel, and only humanitarian essentials are allowed through a small number of crossings.

If the fucks even allow that in!

That's what makes these attacks stink to high heaven; why would Hamas want to shut them down?

Doesn't make sense; only one nation benefits from... oh, I see!

"They know that the crossings are the way to provide food, medicine, and gas. They don't care if the population doesn't receive these things," said Major Avital Leibovich, an Israeli military spokeswoman.

The assault occurred at 6 a.m. when three vehicles, two painted to look like Israeli army jeeps and an armored car, approached the Kerem Shalom crossing in southern Gaza, Leibovich said.

Maybe they weren't painted and really were Israeli vehicles being used in a Mossad black-op!

With heavy mortar fire giving them cover, the vehicles burst through a perimeter fence. When Israeli soldiers were dispatched to confront the vehicles, two of the vehicles exploded. Of the 13 soldiers wounded, one sustained serious injuries, Leibovich said.

But none of them DIED, huh? Strange.

Half an hour later, another armored vehicle approached a different crossing but was struck by an Israeli tank shell before it reached its apparent target.

Question: How did Hamas smuggle in armored vehicles?

Not something you can just assemble, are they?

Story is STINKIN' MORE EVERY MINUTE!!!!

Israeli Defense Minister Ehud Barak later visited the border area where the first suicide attack occurred. "When the time comes, Hamas will bear the consequences," he warned.


That's a WHEN, too, not an IF!!! We all know, Ehud!!!!

We are just waiting on it so we can CONDEMN YOU NaZionist fucks once again!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Major General Yoav Galant, the top army commander in the area, said Hamas apparently tried to cause a large number of casualties and to kidnap soldiers in yesterday's operation.

Why not? Israel does that shit every fucking day!!!!!!!!

"This is an attack the likes of which we have not seen since disengagement," Galant said, referring to Israel's pullout from Gaza in September 2005.

And what about the barrage and siege you shit bags have been putting Gaza under, shit stink?

Also yesterday, four Palestinian fighters and a member of Hamas's police force were killed in separate Israeli strikes, police and medical sources in Gaza said.

Yeah, but somehow that never leads in the Zionist War Dailies!

Instead, we get the Hamas attacks up front.

Yup, poor little shit Israel!!!!

The four militants were killed in a missile strike east of Gaza City. A mechanic for the Hamas police was killed when a missile hit a car near Kerem Shalom. The Israeli military said it targeted people trying to launch rockets....

Despite the recent attacks, Hamas has said it still seeks a truce on the Gaza-Israel border....

Just emphasizes the CUI BONO point, readers!

WHO BENEFITS from these alleged "attacks?"
