Hamas has smuggled up to 1,300 tons of weapons from Egypt into Gaza
and is preparing for the option of launching a large-scale conflict
with Israel. So states a Fatah report quoted by WorldNetDaily.
The weapons, WND
reports, include between several hundred and 1,300 tons of
advanced rockets; anti-tank and anti-aircraft missiles; rocket
propelled grenades; raw explosives; rifles; ammunition; and other
heavy weaponry.
Israel has long complained that the arrangements at the Egypt-Gaza
border crossing are not satisfactory, and that the European monitors
are ineffectual in stopping the smuggling. Then-Prime Minister Ariel
Sharon agreed to the deal last November, after U.S. Secretary of State
Condoleeza Rice arrived in the region and gave her stamp of approval.
WND's Aaron Klein quotes Abu Ahmed, leader of the northern Gaza
chapter of
the Al Aqsa Martyrs Brigades terror group, as saying the terrorists
are working towards, and succeeding in, turning Gaza into a
Hizbullah-like threat against Israel.
"We learned from Hizbullah's victory that Israel can be defeated if we
know
how to hit them and if we are well prepared," Abu Ahmed said. "We are
importing rockets and the knowledge to launch them and we are also
making
many plans for battle."
WND also quotes another terrorist leader - Abu Abdullah, reported to
be a top member of the Izaddin Al-Kassam Brigades of Hamas - detailing
the preparations for war against Israel.
"In the last 15 months," Abu Adullah said, " though the fighters of
Hamas kept the ceasefire, we did not stop making important
advancements and professional training on the military level. In the
future, after Hamas is obliged to stop the ceasefire, the world shall
see our new military capabilities." He said that Hamas and Hizbullah,
which has cells in Sinai, are cooperating in importing rockets and
guerilla training.
