Israeli jets bomb Gaza cities
[Iran Press] Israeli war planes have bombarded the southern Gazoo Strip city of Khan Yunis and tunnels in the city of Rafah, leaving a number of people maimed.

At least four people were injured in the airstrikes in Rafah and three others are missing, a Press TV correspondent quoted witnesses as saying on Saturday night.

Israeli jets are still flying low over the Gazoo Strip, and the Gazooks are bracing for more attacks.

Israeli forces also fired rockets at farmlands in Khan Yunis.

There were no immediate reports of casualties from the rocket attacks.

Israel has repeatedly launched air and ground attacks on Gazoo since the deadly 22-day war it waged against the territory from late December 2008 to mid-January 2009.

Israel regularly pounds the network of tunnels underneath the border between the blockaded coastal enclave and Egypt, saying the Paleostinian resistance fighters are smuggling weapons through the tunnels.

However,
There's usually a howeverin there someplace, isn't there?
the Paleostinians reject the accusations, arguing that the tunnels are their last resort for bringing in the basic necessities they have been deprived of for years under a crippling Israeli siege on the impoverished territory, which is home to about 1.5 million people.
I see no contradiction in those two statements, unlike the IranPressTv propagandist reporter. Gazan basic necessities include weapons up to missiles capable of reaching half of Israel. As for food and such, there is such an overstock that prices have been dropping -- and photos of women and children show them round-cheeked and fat, not wan and drawn from privation.
