Diskin: Gaza Smuggling Skyrocketing

Palestinian terrorist organizations were studying the Lebanese-Israeli war to learn how to play on Israel's weaker points. 'Samaria has become the land of Islamic Jihad following the disengagement.' Approximately 15,000 guns, 4 million bullets, 2,300 pistols, 38 rockets, dozens of anti-tank missiles, 15 tons of TNT, 400 RPGs, and 10-15 Katyushas had been smuggled into Gaza from Egypt.

After three to five years of this kind of weapons transfer, he warned, Israel will face a situation similar to south Lebanon.

"At this point, anybody who wants to smuggle something through the Philadelphi route can apparently do so," Diskin said. "You can smuggle anything through Philadelphi except maybe a tank or plane."
