I've Been Thinking:
Yesterday a drone took off from Gaza and flew into Israel.
The Israelis report that the drone was being watched every moment - even before it was launched.
The Israeli Air Force was scrambling to destroy the drone if necessary.
The drone crossed into Israeli territory and then fell to the ground. The army picked up the drone and they are examining and studying it. Israel is asserting that at no time was the drone a threat.
There are two types of drones. One is for intelligence and spying and the other is for attack. They are both remote control operated and they both have cameras that send back important reconnaissance pictures to be studied.
There have been serious rumors that Hamas was given drones by Iran. And Hamas has repeatedly said that they do have drone technology and the ability to hit Israel with drones.
Israel is not yet releasing information on the nature or the make of the drones. But no one can deny that this incident was an important game changer. Drones give Hamas eyes in places they never could see before.
That is dangerous.
