Gazan terror groups have obtained weapons from Libya, through Egypt, during months-long uprising, Israeli officials say.
Palestinians in Gaza have acquired anti-aircraft and anti-tank rockets from Libya during its six-month civil war, enlarging but not significantly improving their arsenal, Israeli officials said on Monday.
While the rebellion against Muammar Gaddafi has stirred concern abroad about the fate of Libya's aging chemical weapons stockpiles, Israel has no indication Hamas or other Palestinian factions have sought these, the officials said
These anti aircraft guns from Libya havn’t done any good for Ghadafi, how they gonna help the Palistinians?
Probably supplied courtesy of NATO and the US....
Israel uses aircraft so their troops won’t have to enter Gaza.
This could actually be a big deal. Israel should go in and take them away, or warn the inhabitants around the munitions, and strike them until they are destroyed.
Any resistance could be used to justify taking Gaza back over, and clamp down on the territory.
That is because 1) the terrorists who stole them from the armories did not want to shoot down NATO jets (yet) and 2) We have no idea how much AA missiles and such our aircraft had to endure (probably very little because they could drop a JDAM from 20,000 feet and still hit their target)and 3) they probably had no idea how to use them effectively.
The Palis are probably using Obama money to buy training for their use.
They are crazy, and cowards. The Palestinians would probably target a civilian airliner and attempt to kill hundreds of innocent men, women and children. That's how they operate, never taking on Israeli soldiers one on one.
Israel needs to wipe out these scum. If the Palestinians use these weapons, then Israel must use the opportunity to clean out this arab scum from Gaza.
The rubble-monkeys can barely chuck rocks... what are they going to do with this stuff? May as well paint giant targets on them for the IAF.
If you’d like to be on or off, please FR mail me.

You lower the barrel down to eye level and totally destroy a building. Or blow a person into many pieces.
He sure likes supplying weapons to violent people for someone with a peace prize!
