Israeli military sources said the intelligence community has tracked the arrival of advanced Russian-origin anti-tank missiles in the Gaza Strip. The sources said the ATGMs reached the Gaza Strip through Egypt in mid-2009.

Would be interesting to know who paid the Russians. I’ll bet Israel would like to know.

The nice thing about gaining an edge in conventional weapons is getting to find out for sure about those 72 virgins, thanks to Israel’s A) better trained troops and/or B) Israel’s nukes.
