So said Brigadier General Aviv Kochavi, commander of the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) Gaza Division, in a message to Defense Minister Shaul Mofaz, explaining that the number of terrorist incidents emanating from Gaza since Israel left the area “is enormous.”
The army has reported 75 incidents of small arms fire from Gaza, 130 Kassam rocket and mortar shell attacks, and at least 18 bombs planted along the border fence––the smallest one weighing some 40 kilograms (88 lbs.)––since Israel’s “disengagement” from the coastal strip, according to Ynet.
“This isn’t the border we intended” when Israel decided to relinquish Gaza under the directives of Prime Minister Ariel Sharon, Kochavi said. Many security experts, including Likud party leadership candidate Binyamin Netanyahu, are warning this is just the beginning; and that Gaza is likely to become the gateway for an unprecedented wave of Islamic terrorism against Israel’s Jews.
