It appears that the lie about Qassams being at the most “an irritant” is not just a result of a specific journo’s mental laziness or idiocy. It is now a spreading item of “knowledge” in the British MSM. Here is the post by shlemazl, but I just have to quote from it:
Well, rockets are pretty pathetic things. Nobody gets injured, they are homemade, and you well know they have nothing much stronger than an AK-47: no RPGs, they have no weapons and you are delivering some of the most sophisticated bombardment that has ever been subjected to a defenseless people. Is it an act of terror would you say?
