Explosions blow hole in Gaza-Egypt border wall
2007-07-10
Two explosions early Wednesday caused a large hole in the Gaza-Egypt border wall, witnesses reported, sending people rushing to the open crossing but causing no injuries.

Hamas gunmen rushed to the scene to prevent Gazans from fleeing to Egypt and there were no immediate crossings reported. Several groups had issued threats in recent days about attacking the wall.

Hamas confirmed two explosions took place but denied any hole was created in the wall between Gaza and Egypt.
Fleeing to Egypt is bad. Bringing weapons in is good

#3  I can hardly blaming the typical Paleo for wanting to get the hell out of Hamas controlled Gaza, any more than all the Afghans who fled the Taliban.

#2  Egypt might interpret that as a causus belli.

#1  Israel should unilaterally "gift" Gaza to Egypt (whether they want it or not). Turn off water and electricty, and then just sit back and watch the show!
