Once again, a Palestinian Arab rocket is fired from the Gaza Strip into Israel at about 6.30 today, Sunday morning, this one crashing close to the Erez Crossing. No injuries or serious damage.
For the teeming Gazan population, Erez is a critically important gateway into and out of the Strip . It might be interesting to analyze why terrorists would want to damage it (as they have damaged other cross-overs repeatedly in the past six years), but the reality is the Qassam rockets they fire are the equivalent of heavy, blunt instruments. PA president Mahmoud Abbas absurdly calls them "pipes" (see "Pipedreams and Pipe-nightmares"), but while incapable of accuracy because of their lack of a guidance system, they are deadly weapons which give articulate expression to the hateful, violent outlook of the thugs who have already fired hundreds of them into Israeli towns and houses in the past two years.
