Look Out For A Trojan Horse; Israel Letting In Palestinians Fleeing Gaza

Topics: Iraq

This sounds as though Israel is doing what it usually does - the humanitarian thing:

Hundreds of frightened Palestinians spent another night in a tunnel leading to Israel, trying to flee the chaos and threats of violence in Gaza but trapped by Hamas militants on one end and Israeli forces on the other.

Israel's defense minister ordered the army to allow an unspecified number of Palestinians fleeing the Gaza Strip to enter Israel, the Defense Ministry announced Wednesday.

Defense Minister Ehud Barak instructed officials to let in "humanitarian cases," according to the announcement. That apparently meant people needing urgent medical treatment.


But it could be a mistake. Are they letting in a self-defeating trojan horse?
