26-May-16: Gazan Arabs fire another rocket at southern Israel: Fail to inflict damage or injury

A rocket fired from the Hamas-controlled Gaza Strip on Wednesday night in the general direction of southern Israel is reported [Israel National News] to have exploded harmlessly in an open area of the Sha’ar Hanegev region, fortunately causing neither human injuries nor property damage. The attack occurred around 11:00 pm.

The “Color Red” [Tzeva Adom] incoming rocket warning alert was not sounded prior to explosion since the system correctly (as it appears) computed that it was headed towards an open area.

This, it bears repeating, was not the intention of the terrorists who put their lives in jeopardy by firing missiles at Israel. They will certainly be trying for a more damaging result in the future.

Like many sites that advocate for a moderate, Israel-friendly viewpoint, we unfortunately receive abusive, offensive and racist messages on a routine basis. We want it to be clear that we reserve the right to reject them in our absolute discretion. Racist and Israel-hating sites abound on the web. So not being allowed to play in our sandbox can hardly be called a hardship. Anonymous postings or messages where email address of the poster is hidden from us will generally not be accepted.
