There’s been at least 15 rocket/mortar attacks already today. Eventually one of these rockets is going to get “lucky”.

it’s sad, but it will probably take a “lucky” rocket strike killing Israeli citizens before the Israeli gov will do anything of significance to stop these strikes.

The only protection the folks in Sderdot and Ashkelon get now is the Gaza border crossings closed and an occassional strike on a rocket launch crew after they have already launched

Olmert: Qassams will receive response

Published: 12.17.08, 19:38 / Israel News

Prime Minister Ehud Olmert voted in the Kadima primary elections and spoke about the Qassam rockets raining down on the Negev.

“The fire just stresses what we have been saying all along, which is that we cannot consent to a situation in which there is a supposed lull, but the reality is completely different. Of course this requires our attention, and there will be a response,” Olmert said. (Ronen Medzini)

hasn’t he turned over the reins yet . . . Olmert wouldn’t know what a proper “response” was if it smacked him upside the head.

It seems some posters fail to realize the Ashkelon is an overwhelmingly Jewish city today in Israel proper.
