After two weeks of intense warfare against the terror organization Hamas, the Israel Defense Forces published the first official statistics recapping its operations over the last 14 days.

Two weeks ago, the war now called “Operation Iron Swords” in Israel began in the morning hours of Oct. 7, on the holiday of Simchat Torah and during Shabbat, with a brutal surprise attack by Hamas terrorists in the Gaza Strip.

The terrorists began by launching a broad rocket attack against Israeli towns, which has not let up since.

In the two weeks since what is now being referred to as “black Shabbat,” Hamas and its affiliated organizations have fired over 6,900 rockets into Israel, the IDF said.

6,900 rockets into Israel

_______________________

It always puzzles me. Where they get this amount of stuff from?
Gaza people are supposedly suffering from want, but they can scramble to get so much rockets etc. ?

They get money from your taxes

Crazy world no?

We call it humanitarian aid

You think anyone in Gaza who wishes to live has stones to tell Hamas terror wing in Gaza no?

Gaza political wing is in Qatar where we have bases and they give large bank to Hamas

It gets even more complicated

Forget Iran let’s talk about what nato member Turkey does for Hamas

Water pipes become rocket casings.

Common chemicals / fertilizer for rocket fuel / explosives.

Tunnels under Egypt / Gaza border. Egypt flooded some by building fish farms over them, some years back, but the border doesn’t look like a moat — new tunnels were built elsewhere.

Border inspectors bribed if not actual sympathizers or terrorists themselves.

Clandestine deliveries along Gaza seashore.

Etc., etc.

Part of the reason Gazans are poor* is because so much of what could be productive effort goes into terrorists’ weapons.

*About 1.5x the average income of people in India, though.

I think it was NBC that had a piece on the home-made weapons including thermite grenades and bombs, “homemade” RPG’s, etc.

The Israelis got complacent. You hear interviews of survivors at the concert talking about rocket attacks taken lightly as they’d become almost a normal part of life. Seems unbelievable.

Humans are clever...

The US paid for a new water system.
The muslim pigs dug it up and used the pipe to make rockets.
