Palestinian Terrorists Launch Another Barrage of Rockets From Gaza Aimed At Israeli Civilians

Just last month, Hamas terrorists launched a brutal barrage of 68 rockets at civilian targets in Israel over a 12 hour period --


And now, on November 10th, it is happening again.

Haaretz is reporting on dozens of rockets being fired from Gaza by Hamas at civilian targets in Israel:
Dozens of rockets exploded in southern Israel on Saturday, as violence flared up on the Israel-Gaza border.

Some 31 rockets hit the Eshkol, Sha'ar Hanegev and Hof Ashkelon regional councils, as well as the areas around Ashkelon and Ashdod. Of these, more than 20 landed in the Eshkol Regional Council alone. One of the rockets in Sha'ar Hanegev exploded in the yard of a house. No casualties were reported.

I realize that many of my NY readers, who took the brunt of the storm, may be without electricity now and for some undetermined time into the days ahead.  May they all be safe and able to return to reasonable normality before too long.  Full recovery of the city will be a long and heavy haul.

Hamas continues to remain in the news, and I think it's worth taking a look at a couple of things here. With the resumption of rocket attacks yesterday and the day before, it's important to note that it was not renegade groups that had refused to cooperate with an Egyptian-negotiated ceasefire that were claiming credit.  It was Hamas itself.

In fact, Hamas let down some of its facade this week, when it released a video showing their rockets being fired from within a populated area.

Arlene Kushner On The Politics Behind Hamas's Attack On Israel

The Inside to Hamas


Since midnight last night, no rockets have been fired from Gaza into Israel, although there was one mortar shell. This quiet is a result of a ceasefire brokered by Egypt.

On Army Radio today, Amos Gilad -- head of the Diplomatic-Security Bureau of the Ministry of Defense -- said that Egyptian security forces have "a very impressive ability" to convey to the militants that it is in their "supreme interest not to attack."

However, according to Arutz Sheva, there are reports coming in indicating that not all terror groups have agreed to the ceasefire and some reserve the right to fire on Israel.

Sound like deja vu? That's because it is.
