27-Aug-12: Rocket fire on Sderot this morning

Though rocket fire on southern Israel is an almost daily matter (unknown to the vast majority of people), there's extra nervousness in the region this week. That's because more than two million Israeli children ended their summer holidays [background] and are back in class this morning. And based on the performance of years gone by, the sadistic terrorists of Hamas-controlled Gaza see special significance in attacks on Israeli schools and school-buses.

A little after 8 this morning, the city of Sderot - which suffered a triple-rocket attack yesterday morning - came under rocket attack again. The details are not yet known, but we know the Tzeva Adom missile warning system began sounding throughout the area about twenty minutes ago, at about 8:20 Monday morning. More details when they come in.

  1. Such a shame that children live with this on a daily basis. I, as a native American, wish I could change this for your childrens sake.
    I long for the day that Isreal will no longer have to live in fear.

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.
