IDF forces foiled an attempted inflitration by Gaza terrorists Sunday evening in the Kerem Shalom area. The IDF reportedly hit one vehicle from the air and the terrorists in it were killed.

Initial reports from Gaza said that members of an extremist Islamic group attacked two Egyptian army posts in the Egyptian part of Rafiah with anti-tank rockets and gunfire, killing 15 Egyptian officers and soldiers. Al Jazeera later put the number of Egyptian soldiers dead at 20.

They then commandeered an Egyptian military armored personnel carrier (APC) and tried to use it to cross into Israeli territory. Some reports said there were two such APCs and that one of them blew up as it approached the Kerem Shalom crossing.

Were these REALLY terrorists? This sounds more like a plan a bunch of morons who got drunk in the backyard would dream up.

“First, within sight of the Israelis, we shoot up the Egyptian side checkpoint. Then, we steal that armored personnel carrier”.

“Ok, then what Akmed?”

“I’ll tell you then what. We just drive RIGHT into Israel! Nobody can stop a tank!!

This is like the three stooges performing art.

Among many islamic men, being drunk morons with spur-of-the-moment strategies is not unusual.

I agree. Anyone who as an act of faith believes they’re going to get 72 virgins upon entering heaven isn’t thinking. Why 72? Why not 100 or 1,000? Who picked the number 72? Did Allah go to school to learn math?

Did Mohammed the pedophile come up with that number? I wonder if he could count. Probably he tolld a scribe, who could count, that the departed who served Allah would get the same number of goats as owned by the tribe. The scribe preferred virgins to goats, so he changed the wording.

Who are these terrorists? What are their names? From what village do they come? Who paid them?
