IDF forces found a 130kg bomb near the Jewish community of Morag in the southern Gaza strip, reports Israel Radio.

Border Police sappers safely defused the device.

During the past two years, four hundred bombs have been found and defused in the Gaza Strip.

Dang, the brothers are takin' it on the chin today.

130 kilos is about 286 pounds, using English units. What would that be in the American Journalist Measurement System? 2000 pounds? 3000? They'd better use a Pontiac to move such a heavy load!

Careful......Kofi Annan may charge Israel with a war-crime for destroying a Hamas bomb.

Gosh....if Israeli's breathe, its a war-crime according to Goofy Kofi and the UN

Maybe Iraq is hiding its WMD in Gaza. HMMM

[Centurion2000]

They should go plant this thing somewhere in Gaza strip and then let the Palies know that they have 24 hours to find it and defuse it.

What's good for the goose is good for the gander.

Note to Helen Thomas:

I am so sorry for you to have to read about this latest Israeli success. It must break your heart. Perhaps you could put a call thru to billy boy, er, komrade klinton, for some mutual grieving.

Good job, Israel!

BTW, 130 kg=286 lb
