30-Dec-13: Rocket fired into Israel from Gaza

As the government of Israel prepares to release some 26 convicted murderers from their prisons in order to appease the Palestinian Authority and the US government, there are signs that the Palestinian Arab celebrations have gotten off to an early start. At about 5:40 pm this evening (Monday), the Tzeva Adom incoming rocket warning system was heard in parts of southern Israel. Shortly afterwards, a rocket fired by terrorists from the Hamas-dominated Gaza Strip crashed and exploded in southern Israel's Sha'ar HaNegev region where, as far as Ynet knows, no injuries or damage resulted. Eleven communities are based in the Sha'ar Henegev region, located midway between Beersheba and Ashkelon, with a total population of 6,000 and covering about 180 square kilometers.

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.
