I've Been Thinking:
Tensions are high. A potential escalation is obvious.
I'm talking about Gaza and the Israeli towns and farms situated near the Gaza border.
Over the past 48 hours over 400 rockets have been shot from Gaza
toward Israel. And Hamas in Gaza has said that if Israel targets any of
its leaders they will unleash their new advanced rockets. These
rockets, they said, have fire power that can and will target Tel Aviv
and threaten the economic foundation of Israel.
The situation was covered by the Hebrew press in Israel. It quoted
Hamas leaders from the Hezbollah paper Al Akhbar which is published in
Lebanon. It also quoted London based Al Jadida which wrote that Egypt’s
head of security visited Gaza to try to tamp down tensions. He was
probably the person who leaked information to the Arabic press.
Hamas governs Gaza. They ousted the Palestinian Authority in a bloody murderous coup in 2007.
