May 30th events, following the Palestinian escalation in Southern Israel

After failures in 2014 war, Iron Dome shows it can now down mortar fire too

Israel spends $100,000 to shoot down a $200 mortar.

Just sayin'.

Because you are an idiot, and you prove it with every post.

Let those mortars fall near you or on you and let us see you cry about the cost of defending you.

Cost doesn't matter. Israel will just mooch more money from the US.

And Hamas and Islamic Jihad will smooch more money from UNWRA, Qatar, Iran, and all of its fans.

Hooray!!!!

Israel is the mooch capital of the world.

With what Israel has stolen and mooched, Haiti would be a prosperous country.

Childish.....as always.

"We carried out three waves of attack on dozens of terrorist targets in the Gaza Strip, including weapons manufacturing sites and several tunnels, and the attacks will intensify as much as necessary. Senior Hamas figures are hiding, and they know why," Manlis added.

Yes. Israel does. Why does she do that?

Because Iron Dome protects her citizens. Because Iron Dome is strictly a defensive tool. Because having a strictly defensive tool reduces the necessity of responding in kind to lethal attacks against her citizens. Because Israel has the moral fortitude and the available economic resources to make choices which benefit her citizens and ultimately also benefit her enemies.

Imagine how great Israel would be if she did NOT NEED to defend herself from pointless, belligerent attacks on a regular basis. It boggles the mind what Israel might be able to do without needing to invest millions of dollars every year into defending itself from belligerents making entirely pointless attacks against her (since those attacks will never bring to fruition any of the Arab Palestinian goals of destroying Israel).

Arabs should aspire to such "waste" of resources, instead of permitting their own citizens to suffer while they pour $90 million into completely pointless tunnels.

"Hine lo yanum vlo yishan Shomer Yisrael"

1Of David. O Lord, strive with those who strive against me, battle my foes.
2Grasp a shield and encircling armor, and rise to my assistance.
3And arm Yourself with a spear and bar the way before my pursuers; say to my soul, "I am your salvation."
4May those who seek my life be shamed and embarrassed; may those who plan my harm draw backward and be abashed.
5Let them be as chaff before the wind, with an angel of the Lord thrusting them.
6May their way be dark and slippery, with an angel of the Lord pursuing them.
7For without cause they have hidden for me a pit, yea a net; without cause they have dug it for my soul.
8May darkness that he does not know come upon him, and his net that he hid shall ensnare him; in the darkness may he fall into it.
9And my soul shall exult in the Lord; it shall rejoice in His salvation.
10All my bones shall say, O Lord, who is like You, Who saves a poor man from one stronger than he and a poor man and a needy one from one who robs him.
11False witnesses rise up; they ask me of things that I know not.
12They recompense me with evil instead of good, death to my soul.
13But, as for me, when they were ill, my attire was sackcloth; I afflicted myself with fasting, and may my prayer return upon my bosom.
14I walked about as though it were a friend or as though it were my own brother; I was bowed with gloom as the mourning of a mother.
15And, when I limped, they rejoiced and gathered; lame people gathered about me, [why,] I do not know. Were they to tear, they would not draw blood.
16Because of the flattery of scorn for food, they gnash their teeth at me.
17O Lord, how long will You look on? Return my soul from their darkness, my only one from young lions.
18I will thank You in a large assembly; in a mighty people I will praise You.
19Let them not rejoice over me, those who are my enemies for an unjust cause, neither shall those who hate me for nought wink their eyes.
20For they do not speak peace, and against the crushed people of the earth they think words of deceit.
21And they opened their mouth wide against me and they said, "Aha! Aha! Our eyes have seen [what we desired]."
22You saw, O Lord, do not be silent; O Lord, do not distance Yourself from me.
23Arouse Yourself and awaken to my judgment, my God and my Lord, to my cause.
24Judge me according to Your righteousness, O Lord, my God, and let them not rejoice over me.
25Let them not say in their hearts, "Our soul rejoices." Let them not say, "We have swallowed him up."
26Let them be ashamed and abashed together, those who rejoice at my misfortune; let them be clothed in shame and disgrace, those who raise themselves haughtily over me.
27Let those who desire my vindication sing praises and rejoice, and let them constantly say, "May the Lord, Who desires the peace of His servant, be magnified."
28And my tongue shall utter Your righteousness, Your praise all day long.

In what seems to be a calculated escalation in Southern Israel, the Gaza vicinity is again unquiet.

Starting just before 7 AM this morning, Palestinian Islamic Jihad started firing rockets and mortars, dozens of them, unto Israel; Iron Dome took care of multiple rockets, yet a mortar shell did hit just nearby a kindergarten. Over 20 launched were directed at Israeli communities.

9 AM, the launches return with sirens. Over 24 'Code Red' sirens are heard in Gaza vicinity in less than 2 hours. 8:02 and 9:36 sign the second wave of launchings in Eshkol and Sha'ar Hanegev.

The second wave of launchings occurs around noon, and then every hour. Islamic Jihad claims that 'Blood shall be answered in Blood' (as they claim attacks on said civilian targets are a legitimate response to the targeting and killing of 3 of their men yesterday while they tried to cross the border and kill Israeli soldiers). Around 4:00, and then 4:36 PM sirens are heard again all across Gaza vicinity, one of the mortars hit a school playground. IDF starts retaliating, targeting Dozens of Hamas sites in Gaza, no casualties reported.

Israeli Cabinet says the rocket firing won't go without a response, and Islamic Jihad threatens again. One of the afternoon launches had Hamas stamp on it.

Third round of launches start at 7:28 PM, following by 7:51. The mortar shells are exchanged with Grads, and the ranges increase to Ofakim and Netivot.

Sirens are against heard late evening with multiple rocket launchings. Israel again attacks, while the last Sirens were heard on 1:08, 1:13, 1:17, 1:24.

26 deaths in 17 years is not a threat.

26 deaths in 17 years is not a threat.

Ah, so there is a minimum number of dead before a threat is a threat? Is that how we are measuring it nowadays? How many is that? How does any country know that there are enough dead citizens that she is permitted to respond?

Does it reset itself every year? I mean, in January, do you have to wait until enough citizens are dead before you can respond to lethal force?

Oh, and do you have a link to that somewhere in IHL? Where it outlines the exact number of dead necessary before a nation can respond to lethal force against its citizens?

Over 100 Palestinians killed in the last few weeks. Can they respond yet?

Ask Billo. He was the one making the claim that there needs to be a certain number of dead. I have no idea what his number is.

Arabs-Moslems have been “martyred” because they chose to attack Israel. It’s a simple cause/effect relationship you don’t understand.

You can only use deadly force when your life is threatened, not because someone approaches a fence.

Why do you deliberately lie?

Protesting inhuman treatment is not an attack.

Flail your Pom Poms as you wish for the islamic terrorists you worship but acts of war by those retrograde terrorists will result in an Israeli response.

What you want to portray is that your islamic terrorist heroes are to be granted an entitlement to acts of savagery without consequence.

You clearly live in an alternate reality.

Walking up to the fence with weapons and explosives attempting to breach that fence will have consequences.

Try it. Let us know how things turn out.

Problem is, that's not what happened. You shot people who were unarmed.
