Palestinian Terrorists Are Stupid

Oh for crying out loud:

About 50 masked Palestinian militants set off a landmine Thursday near the concrete wall marking the Gaza-Egypt border, Palestinian security officials said. The explosion caused little damage to the wall, the officials said.

No wonder the IDF was so unprepared to face Hezbollah. They've spent the last five years honing their tactics to deal with complete idiots.

UPDATE: Now that we think about it, this was Ze'ev Schiff's analysis about how policing in Gaza blunted the IDF's fighting abilities (of course, he's a genius and we're just trying to make a cheap joke). David Gertsman took exception to Schiff's article as marked by ideology, but it does seem at least plausible that fighting incompetent Palestinians left the IDF unprepared to fight the best trained, best armed, and most entrenched Arab foe that Israel ever had to face on the battlefield.
