This Is No Way To Live


I read that the Islamic Jihad is manufacturing new rockets with longer range capabilities (12.5 miles), similar to the Grad rockets already in use by Gaza terrorists. The new rockets are armed with a much deadlier warhead that carries double the amount of explosives compared to the regular Qassams.

Security officials say that this information confirms that the terrorists in Gaza are definitely getting outside help as they increase their efforts to develop new weapons, a situation that is cause for deep concern and alarm in the opinion of IDF officials.

Tragically predictable as is their habit, Palestinian terrorists in Gaza have launched a new wave of increased Qassam missile attacks to coincide with the arrival in Israel tomorrow of Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice. It has become predictable that more rockets fly every time Secretary Rice is coming to Israel. Hamas is determined to send her a message. A heavy barrage of 7 Qassam missiles struck Sderot last night night, March 26. One exploded in the old market, injuring three people and leaving 16 in shock. Of the 16 missiles fired during the day, one landed south of Ashkelon, several exploded in kibbutzim causing heavy damage to property. Israeli military sources report that Hamas is providing missiles to Islamic Jihad in order to step up the attacks on Israel, without being held solely accountable and drawing Israeli fire.

There is an increased threat from the North as well. The Jerusalem Post carries this headline today: Hizbullah has rockets that can reach Dimona. The officials said the Lebanese group has acquired new Iranian rockets with a range of some 300 kilometers. That means they can hit anywhere in Israel's heavily populated cities.

Threats from Gaza - threats from the northern border - as Senator John McCain said last week during his visit to Sderot, "This is no way to live." This is true, not just for Sderot but for all of Israel.

Edi from Israel has a movie on sderot and the qassams on youtube -
please watch and move forward - that the world can see it.
