The Hamas government in Gaza is charging that weapons are being smuggled into Israel. “We are doing our best to blockade Israel and prevent everything except low-nutrition food and minimal medical supplies from entering,” said spokesperson Jehad al-Muqawama “but regardless of our efforts, they are still getting dangerous weapons that are being used to attack us.

RIGHT: Spent Israeli weapons made in USA.

“Palestinians are facing a barbaric enemy that has a callous disregard for human life. No society in the world can be expected to sit back and allow its terrorized population to become sitting ducks for incessant attacks from across the border. We have to defend our right to exist. They are trying to drive us into the sea.”

I met with Mr. al-Muqawama to find out more about the accusation.

GlossyNews: Mr. al-Muqawama, what evidence do you have that Israel is receiving weapons from outside? Al-Muqawama: Ms. Weir, take a look at the remnants of some of the arms that have been used against us. They plainly say, “Made in USA,” not “Made in Israel,” although we get plenty of those, too. GlossyNews: How are these weapons getting past your blockade? Are there tunnels into Israel? Al-Muqawama: We have not yet found any tunnels, but we believe that Israeli terrorists are being supplied by air and sea military transports.
