JERUSALEM - Israel sank a ship off the Gaza Strip that was carrying arms to the Palestinians, The Post has learned.

The Palestinians, unaware of the ship's fate, are still looking for it.

I guess they don't get the New York Post LOL

I also heard today Israel blew up some four-story apartment building in Gaza which housed terrorists.

Now they're sinking ships!?!

If this is Israel "holding off on a new offensive," I can't wait to see them get really mad.

Yeah, that's the one. Those 70 relatives can go sleep in Jordan.

Crush them all.

The "blockade" of Gaza has begun... how long will the water last if Israel cuts the lines?

you got it, just kill`em all--just blow up an apartment that housed 70 families--that will bring peace for sure. Question, do you think high school will be as tough for you as 8th grade?

*GRIN* So they put those Hamas creeps up in a hotel on the cliffs for a reason, huh?. No wonder Arafat's paying their bill. He's got them working--watching for the ship or getting ready to search for shipment.

wasn't 70 families...it was 70 people. Besides...it needs to be made quite clear, that when one of these lunatics decides to blow himself up in the middle of a bunch of old people, women and children that there will be retribution...there is a consequence. Furthermore, the Israelis let them know that it's time to pack up and leave. Unlike the Palestinians, the Israelis didn't blow up the building with the 70 relatives in it.

Only if they can't find an apartment that houses 7000.

May the bombers and the monsters that sent them burn in hell, but why destroy the apts. that he lived in? I mean, if you lived in an apt. building and a person that lived in the building killed , you are now somehow responsible? That nuts and you know it

I don't know it at all. Quite simply, if a person is considering offing himself and a bunch of Israelis, and doesn't give a damn about himself, maybe he'll give a damn about his family. Alternately, maybe his family will do what they can to persuade him not to do the nasty, since they know that they are on the firing line too(so to speak). Besides all this, Saddam pays them $25k and the Saudis pay them God knows how much..pretty soon they'll be able to afford a little place of their own down at the beach...in Egypt..or Libya...or

You make good sense in a civilized world. But the Palestinians only understand the language of death and destruction. You have to let them know in ways that they understand.
