TEL AVIV MISSILE INTERCEPT OF IRANIAN MISSILE FIRED BY PALESTINIAN TERRORISTS
Imagine what it is like if you are an ordinary citizen and someone is shooting rockets into your area …
And on the other side, knowing that your government is provoking an action which will see rockets, drones or other military action in your area.
As reported …
Iron Dome intercepts missiles aimed at Tel Aviv
The Iron Dome intercepted two Iranian-made Fajr-5 missiles aimed at Tel Aviv on Saturday. The missiles marked the third attack on the heavily populated central city in as many days, after Palestinian terrorists from Gaza fired four missiles toward the financial capital on Thursday and Friday, prompting red alert air raid sirens to sound in the city. While police said that one of the missiles landed in an open area, a military source told The Jerusalem Post that the Iron Dome intercepted both missiles.
Islamic Jihad leader Khalid Batsh said on Saturday that the launch of rockets at Tel Aviv from Gaza show "the rules of the game have changed in the region," Palestinian news agency Ma'an reported.
The Israel Air Force struck 200 targets in the Gaza Strip overnight Friday, including 120 rocket launchers and 20 tunnels, bringing the total number of targets throughout Operation Pillar of Defense to 830.
Officials in Gaza said 47 Palestinians, including eight children and a pregnant woman, had been killed since Israel began its air strikes. <Source>
Where the hell is Barack Obama in condemning these continuing missile attacks?
Bottom line …
The terrorists will continue their reign of terror and will break up any substantive peace talks to achieve their agenda. It is time for the International community to sanction those – especially Iran – who provide weapons to Palestinian terror groups. Perhaps Iran believes by keeping Israel at a disadvantage they can complete their work on a nuclear weapon without suffering an airstrike.
Is this more of Barack Obama’s cowardly “lead from behind” foreign policy or is it simply his pro-Palestinian proclivity? Enough with the rhetoric demanding that Israel give up land for a peace that never comes. With each land grant placing the terrorists in a better firing position to attack Israel. It is time for the President of the United States to stand up in the United Nations and say Enough! No more missiles. A cease-fire without preconditions. And United Nations Peacekeepers being sent to Gaza to insure “offensive” missile batteries are not located near schools, Mosques, hospitals and dense civilian infrastructure. When is that empty suit going to validate his faux Nobel Peace Prize by actually saving lives and advancing peace?
