RIP: Sami Ahmad An-Nadi

Reported:-

A 22-year-old worker was killed Monday when a smuggling tunnel under the Gaza-Egypt border collapsed, medics said.  Sami Ahmad An-Nadi, from Khan Younis, was trapped in the tunnel in Rafah in the southern Gaza Strip.

Gaza medical services spokesman Adham Abu Salmiya said An-Nadi's body was taken to the Abu Yousif An-Najjar Hospital in Rafah.

The spokesman said over 160 workers have been killed in tunnel accidents since February 2006.


But you noticed "since 2006"?  Why then did the 'closures' begin?  After the Shalit kidnapping which occurred on June 25, 2006.

So, who is to blame?

If the Egyptians have "opened" the border crossing at Rafah, why do they need to smuggle? Oh, I forgot, this is how arabs conduct trade...
