40 Rockets Fall in Israel

By Micah Halpern
I've Been Thinking: 

Yesterday afternoon over 40 rockets were shot into Israel from Gaza. Four people were injured - one moderately and three lightly.

This was the worst single day of rocket fire from Gaza into Israel in years. It happened as the Egyptian presidential election results came rolling in and the day after an al Qaeda attack in the Sinai aimed at Israeli contractors building a security fence.

The attack clearly came after a command was given in Gaza to attack Israel.

The Israelis are evaluating their response.

As they do that, a two year old Palestinian was killed in her home by an explosion. The Palestinians said it was an Israeli airstrike reprisal but the Israeli air force said there were no sorties into Gaza.

The truth is that the girl died from a bomb misfired by the terrorists in their own home.
