US-Israel 'MOU': "...to deal with the smuggling of arms from Iran to Hamas..."

Basically, building a network of informants ... Ravid, Harel & Issacharoff, in Haaretz-Reuters, here

Israel is asking for a number of guarantees from the Americans:
* A U.S. declaration calling on the international community to deal with the smuggling of arms from Iran to terrorist groups in the Gaza Strip.

*Intelligence cooperation between Israel and the U.S. for identifying thesources of weapons, with focus on the network linking Iran, the Persian Gulf and Sudan.

*An international maritime effort along the smuggling routes to find ships carrying weapons to the Gaza Strip, possibly with the involvement of NATO.

*An American and European commitment for the transfer of technologies to Egypt that will help it uncover tunnels.

*Plans for the economic development of Rafah, with particular emphasis on the Bedouin to undercut the financial motivation for building and operating tunnels.
