If it weren't for the Israeli warning systems, their Iron Helmet interception protection and other sophisticated defenses, the torn bodies of ISRAEL'S children, (and adults) would be strewn on the beaches, on the landing grounds, in the fields and on the streets and on the hills.
THAT is the intent of the terrorist enemy.
Thank you, Sir Winston Churchill for the memorable words...and quoting him further..."We shall NEVER surrender!"
GO ISRAEL!

How do we know that it was Israeli naval shelling? ...because the reporters think so. Who releases the facts? ...the NY media - and NBC. I read an AP / Yahoo story a few days ago that ran about 20 paragraphs... the last half on a link to 'page two'; It was the last two paragraphs that mentioned Hamas rockets launched at Israel... the whole first bulk of the story was about poor Palestinians and their wives and children running in terror from Israeli shelling. Did they present the whole story? Yes, but they know many will never proceed to the end of page two.
Do I really need to say more? One needs to read these reports with a jaundiced eye.
