Daily rocket bombardment of Israel injures another civilian

The world continues to ignore the daily bombardment of Israeli towns, both an act of war and a violation of the Geneva Conventions.

Two Qassam rockets fired by Palestinians in Gaza slammed into a home and a warehouse in Sderot Thursday evening. A woman sustained light shrapnel injuries, while a number of other residents suffered from shock.

The home, which was deserted, was severely damaged.

A total of six rockets landed in Israeli territory throughout the day, as did a few mortar shells, which landed near the border fence with Gaza and near the community of Native Ha’asara, located just north of the Strip.

If the home had not been deserted, likely there’d have been deaths to report—which, of course, would finally have gotten the world media’s attention on these “crude, homemade rockets.”

Doing the IDF’s work for them: 15 Syrian soldiers are dead in a blast that is attributed to the heat.

“There is a heat wave and temperatures reached close to 50 degrees, which caused an ammunition dump to explode,” one official told Reuters.

Uh-huh. Works for me, because a nation with desert temps in the summertime wouldn’t prepare their ordnance containers for, say, high periods of heat. Noteworthy facts: It occurred in a complex housing Syrian special forces teams. Say, anyone think maybe Iranian weaponry had anything to do with it?

The Liar’s Club: PA forces say they found a Hamas weapons cache. Hamas says it isn’t theirs. It’s hard to tell which terrorist group is lying. The PA could very easily pretend to have found a weapons cache by, say, exposing one of their own, saying it’s Hamas, and then, of course, keeping the weapons. Like it makes a difference, because Jordan’s handing over another 3,000 rifles, and Olmert is fine with arming the PA again. Because it’s not like those weapons don’t find their way into the hands of murderers of Israelis. Oh. Wait. They always do.

Gee, thanks, Tony! Hamas says that Britain is expanding contact with Hamas.

“I cannot deny that there are now other contacts, other channels of communication with the UK and these involve people of high rank, although I am not personally involved,” he claimed in an interview with the Guardian.

“The main aim of the contacts is to improve our democracy and governance. This is just part of the many contacts that are going on with other governments around the world.”

He added that Britain wanted to keep the contacts secret.

Guess you shouldn’t have told al-Guardian, then, hm? And hey, Tony, good to know you’re willing to talk with Jew-hating murderers in the interests of peace. Because it’s not like they don’t call for the destruction of Israel and the death of Jews in their charter or anything like that. Oh. Wait. They do.
