More Rockets From Gaza

by Micah Halpern
I've Been Thinking:

Since Friday night more than 120 rockets have been launched from Gaza into Israel.

Over 20% of those rockets have been intercepted by the Iron Dome, Israel's anti rocket battery. And more Iron Domes are being deployed in order to continue to effectively intercept rockets.

Israel is striking at the terrorists in Gaza responsible for shooting these rockets. Israel is also targeting their arms depots. But it is still nearly impossible to prevent the rocket launchings.

Some of these rockets are 3 feet long. One video now on the web shows how the rocket was propped up against a large stone and then shot at Israel.

The Palestinian Resistance Committees has given a green light to all their people to fire at Israeli at will - that directive comes in response to Israel's targeting on Friday of their leader, al Qaisi.

If there is a silver lining in all this it is that the Israelis are now smarter about what Gaza is capable of sending their way. And they now have a true test of the effectiveness of the Iron Dome should they need to use it in the event of an Iranian attack.
