Weapons tunnel between Gaza and Egypt collapses

Earlier today, a tunnel on the Gaza - Egypt border collapsed.

A Palestinian security official said one man was dug out from the rubble and an undetermined number of others were trapped in the debris.

The official, Col. Hussein Abu Omar, said the tunnel was dug from inside a Gaza house some 100 meters from the border with Egypt. It was not clear how far it extended into Egypt.

Abu Omar had no details about the owner of the house or further information about the tunnel.

That's the kind of house ~~Rachel Corrie~~ St. Pancake died protecting. Of course, she would tell you that there are no houses in Gaza with weapons tunnels underneath them....

I am an Orthodox Jew - some would even call me 'ultra-Orthodox.' Born in Boston, I was a corporate and securities attorney in New York City for seven years before making aliya to Israel in 1991 (I don't look it but I really am that old :-). I have been happily married to the same woman for thirty-five years, and we have eight children (bli ayin hara) ranging in age from 13 to 33 years and nine grandchildren. Four of our children are married! Before I started blogging I was a heavy contributor on a number of email lists and ran an email list called the Matzav from 2000-2004.
