One time I took a sailboat to Canada for a picnic and then took the
sailboat back to the USA without bothering with customs in either
direction. What good is customs when one can simply sail around them?

From Ha'aretz:
15:58 14/11/2003
Ex-Shin Bet heads warn of 'catastrophe' without peace deal
By Haaretz Service and Agencies
In unusually brazen criticism of the government's handling of the conflict
with the Palestinians, four former heads of the Shin Bet security service
warned Friday of a "catastrophe" if a peace deal is not reached with the
Palestinians.
"We are heading downhill towards near-catastrophe. If nothing happens and we
go on living by the sword, we will continue to wallow in the mud and destroy
ourselves," ex-security chief Yaakov Perry told the mass-circulation daily
Yedioth Ahronoth, reflecting a consensus among his three colleagues - Ami
Ayalon, Avraham Shalom and Carmi Gillon.

Of the PA's $93 million monthly budget, Arafat's office receives some $8
million. By comparison, only $6 million a month goes to the PA's health
system.
Shin Bet chief Avi Dichter warned the cabinet on Sunday against being
lulled by the relative quiet of the last six weeks, saying 14 suicide
bombing attempts were foiled during this period, and the number of terror
alerts has increased recently from some 30 per day to 50.
Dichter, briefing the weekly cabinet meeting, said two of the 14 failed
suicide bombers blew themselves up near Israeli targets, without causing
casualties, while the rest were either foiled by initiated Israeli military
action, or were tripped up by various roadblocks or random patrols.
