Deterrence works

Last week, Hamas launched over 130 rockets into southern Israel. In response, the IDF took out rocket squads, destroyed a Hamas building, and closed off Gaza.

In spite of the propaganda coming out of Hamas, and being passed on through the mainstream media, Israel’s actions seem to be working.

Hamas has stopped launching Kassam rockets into the western Negev “out of fear of Israeli attacks against its institutions and leaders and to signal to Israel that it is willing to uphold a ceasefire,” Palestinian sources told the Palestine Press Agency on Sunday.

Three rockets were launched into Israel on Sunday, a dramatic drop from the barrages of the past week.

Don’t stop. They fired another rocket after that article was written.

And they’re lying about having to shut down the electricity. The AP even writes about how Hamas ordered the Gaza power station shut down, and points out that Israel supplies two-thirds of Gaza’s electricity, and yet, they still put out Hamas propaganda pictures of Gazans sitting in darkness, lit by only candles and lanterns.

Still, deterrence is working. Keep it up, Olmert.
