10-Jan-10: Show and tell

Yesterday (Saturday) another three Qassam rockets crashed into Israel from the Hamas-controlled Gaza Strip. They landed in Israel's Sha'ar Hanegev region. Fortunately there are no reports of injuries or damage.

On Thursday night, for the first time since the Cast Lead campaign of a year ago, a Hamas Katyusha rocket was fired into the area of Ashkelon, landing just south of the city.

Saturday's volley of Qassam rockets came just after a Hamas announcement that it has managed to smuggle new types of weapons into Gaza despite Israel's and Egypt's blockade. JPost quotes an Izzadin al-Qassam Brigades spokesthug saying the group has "thousands of fighters and good weapons capable of harming Israel."

Reinforcing just how ready these people are for more war, the Islamic terrorists published photographs of their new in-place weapons, including missiles with a double warhead, 107mm caliber missiles designed to penetrate fortified structures, and a new type of armor-piercing RPG missile.

About us

THIS ONGOING WAR is not part of the activity of the Malki Foundation which was founded by us, Frimet and Arnold Roth of Jerusalem, on September 11, 2001. But it is inspired by the same tragic circumstances. The Malki Foundation (also known by its Hebrew name: Keren Malki) is a memorial to the life of our daughter, Malki who was murdered at the age of 15 in a massacre in the centre of Jerusalem carried out by Hamas.

Beyond its function as a remembrance of a beautiful life, the foundation provides tangible, concrete, invaluable support daily to several thousand Israeli families from every part of the religious and socio-economic spectrum: Christian, Moslem, Jewish, Druze and others who care at home for a seriously disabled child.

Good for the soul | The Malki Foundation

If you care to make a positive and constructive contribution to the care of Israeli children with special needs - whether they're Christian, Moslem, Jewish, Druze or unconnected to any particular faith community - you can't do better than direct your donation to the work of the Malki Foundation.

It's the charitable organization we, the bloggers who produce This Ongoing War, established in 2001 in memory of our murdered daughter. Her name is Malki.

Keren Malki (in Hebrew, Keren means 'foundation' or 'fund') is efficient, effective, non-sectarian, non-political and unique in the good work it does. Thousands of families from every part of our richly diverse society here in Israel have benefited in concrete and meaningful ways. Donations to Keren Malki are tax-effective in Israel, Canada, UK and the United States.

There's also plenty of background at www.malkifoundation.org as well as on the Malki Foundation Blog.
