Two hurt after Kassam falls in Gaza settlement
By JPOST.COM STAFF

Two Israelis were hurt Tuesday night after a Kassam rocket made a direct hit on a home in the Gaza Strip settlement of Nisanit.

The condition of the wounded was still unclear.

Meanwhile Tuesday, eight Palestinians were killed and 42 wounded during an IDF incursion into Rafah in the southern Gaza Strip to find tunnels used to smuggle weapons from Egypt to the Palestinians, Palestinian sources said.

There were no injuries to IDF troops.

On Monday, two IDF officers of the Givati Brigade were killed and a border policeman wounded in separate terrorist shootings in Hebron in the West Bank and in the central Gaza Strip on Monday night.

There's only one solution to this: Give the people who launched a rocket at a home in a neighboring town their own state.

Why, the state of "Palestine", of course, with whatever borders they desire.

If one thing is clear, it's that if murderers murder enough innocent people including women and children going about their daily life, then they should be given control over, and monopoly of the use of force in, some territory of people of the same general race as themselves, with whatever borders they desire. ;-)

Why, some of the Islamic groups actually want the whole world to be one big Islamic state, don't they? Why not give them the whole world. That's what they want, isn't it?

I think they haven't killed enough people yet. But, if they do kill enough people, or come close to doing so, we might indeed have to start Asking Ourselves Why They Are Killing So Many People, and consider that maybe "the fact that the whole world isn't one big Islamic state yet" is the reason, and then change according. Better Islamic than dead.

That's how I understand the logic, anyway.

The sarcasm is getting a bit thick, isn't it? Perhaps we should allow someone else to comment :)
