Elliott Abrams, former National Security Advisor to President George W. Bush, calls our attention to the reopening of smuggling tunnels between Egypt and Gaza and says the world isn’t paying enough attention.
Unless the tunnels are blocked and the border between Egyptian Sinai and Gaza is policed, another Gaza war surely lies ahead. President Morsi and the Egyptian military must make a decision about this soon, and American lawmakers should keep this in mind as they review military aid to Egypt.

Sadly,the world could care less about Israel’s problmes with her neighbors whether Hamas in Gaza,PLO in J & S or West Bank and of course Hezbollah,so she has to continue to be Big Bad Israel and do what’s in her best interest, PERIOD !

What would the U.S. do if drug cartel terrorists in Tijuana, Mexico started firing rockets into the U.S.? Tijuana would be reduced to rubble! So it should be with Gaza.

I know Israel has the technology to find human life underground, I would use it and then bomb every tunnel where ever they find them.
