Gaza ReBoomed

My assessment that the recent Gaza flareup might have bought the new coalition government of Naftali Bennett “several months of relative peace in which to operate” appears to have been premature:

Israel’s military said it launched airstrikes at the Gaza Strip on Tuesday night after militants in the Palestinian territory fired incendiary balloons into southern Israel.

The counterattack targeting Hamas armed military compounds occurred early Wednesday morning local time and marked the first major flare-up between Israel and Gaza since May 21, when a ceasefire agreement ended eleven days of hostilities. The Israel Defense Forces said the targets were used by Hamas’s Khan Yunis and Gaza Brigades for “terror activities.”

The Israeli military said in a statement that it was “ready for all scenarios, including renewed fighting in the face of continued terrorist acts emanating from Gaza.”

The airstrike came after militants launched arson balloons from Gaza, sparking nearly two dozen fires, according to Fox News.

Bombings will continue until morale improves…

    in judaism, jews are the human beings and everyone else is not – everyone else is a talking animal, put here by god to serve jews, to be eliminated if they don’t. you may read “palestinians did this” or “palestinians did that”, but that’s not what’s driving the bombings.
