15-Jun-06: Still more missile attacks on Israel

Yediot reports that 4 more Qassam rockets have been shot into Israeli towns from northern Gaza this morning. One lands in the beleagured community of Sderot, meters from the home of the Israeli defense minister. Another rocket explodes in Sderot's Naveh Eshkol neighborhood. Two more crash into open fields on the edge of the town. Haaretz says one of the missiles injured 3 people as it crashed into Sderot's industrial zone.

All parts of the Israeli media are reporting this morning that the head of the Hamas regime, Ismail Haniya, having been warned by the Israeli authorities that they will turn their attention to him personally if the missile attacks are not curbed, has directed his thugs to cease their terrorism-by-rocket activity. Evidently his is not necessarily the last word. Another version says that Haniya said no such thing, and we're inclined to believe it.

Neither Haniya nor anyone else in the top ranks of the Palestinian Arab terror organizations has ever called for an end to ongoing terrorism against Jews or Israelis, notwithstanding the wishful thinking of non-Arabic-speaking reporters and their editors.

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.
