On August 17th, I
relayed an intelligence assessment that:
terror groups are building up their strength in the West Bank, trying to transfer the technical knowledge on how to build Kassam rockets from Gaza
In today's news,
Hamas Announces it has Imported Rocket Technology into Judea and Samaria (the West Bank).
On September 2, I brought details of the focus that would be put on transporting the massive Gaza military buildup to Judea and Samaria:
Let us speak frankly: no power, human or divine, will be in a position to prevent a huge stockpiling of arms in Gaza within a few years. The Israeli government understands this; hence it has until now rejected any demand for safe passage between the strip and the West Bank. The possibility that these arms will flow to Abu Dis, Tulkarm, or Kalkilya, which would place a majority of the Israeli population between Haifa and Jerusalem under daily threat of bombardment and the Israeli economy under threat of near total standstill, is real enough to create very strong Israeli resistance.
Today there is word that
Israel is being pressured to allow a road link with Gaza. The man behind the moves is the envoy for the "Quartet" (United Nations, Russia, the European Union and the United States), James Wolfensohn.
