2-Feb-08: Four more Gazan Qassams

Four Qassam rockets, despatched by the Palestinian-Arab jihadists of Gaza, crashed into open fields near the southern Israel city of Sderot this afternoon (Saturday). Fortunately no casualties or damage are reported.

UPDATE: Haaretz says two exploded in the Sderot cemetery, and two of the town's residents were treated for shock at the Barzilai Medical Center in Ashkelon.

This is not directly connected to the above article, but I wanted to bring to your notice that the author of the Sbarro memorial video on Youtube has also created a memorial especially for Malki. It's called "Slipped Away" and it really is very beautiful.
I wasn't sure if you had seen it, as you hadn't linked it from the foundation site.; Saturday, February 02, 2008

Hope to add a link to it on the Keren Malki website very soon.

Thanks for pointing it out.; Saturday, February 02, 2008

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.
