Islamic Jihad missile hits close to Israeli Defense Minister's home
2006-06-02
TEL AVIV — Israeli officials said the Islamic Jihad targeted Defense Minister Amir Peretz with a missile that struck his neighbor's home while Peretz was at home.
Not a smart thing to do, IJ.
Israeli military sources said Islamic Jihad fired a Kassam-class short-range missile that nearly struck the defense minister's home in Sderot.
Peretz was in the house when the missile struck a neighbor's home. Nobody was injured, Middle East Newsline reported.
"He is a Zionist enemy minister," a Jihad spokesman told a news conference in Gaza City on Wednesday.
Well, IJ, you just signed a bunch of death warrants.
"We will find the way to implement activities that prevent these organizations from firing toward Sderot and other communities," Peretz said.
I hope that his quote is an understatement. Overwhelming retaliation is needed here, no tit for tat.
Jihad said it fired four Al Quds-4 missiles, regarded as a variant of the Kassam, toward Sderot. Two of the missiles landed in Sderot and the remainder fell in nearby fields.
The sources said Peretz had been warned that he would be a target of Jihad and Palestinian insurgency groups. They said the defense minister has refused appeals by the military to reinforce his home.
How about disassembling the enemy? Where is the strength of Israel these days?
"Jihad has suspended its attempts to strike strategic facilities in Ashkelon," a military source said. "Instead, Peretz is the target."
Now it is IJ's turn to be the target.

I will say give Israel all the help and a complete freedome to evaporate a few Mooselimb lands and populations and let them ask who is the next. I bet, you will never hear any threat from the entire stupid mooselimb word for the next tweny years. Destroy them all and you will never hear any threat from them for ever. This is as simple as it is. Your choice, whether you want your grand children to obey Talibans or not. My dear friends, take it straight, you can not please the Islamists without a total surrender to them - you, your children and grand children. Pay the price now for there will be no price to pay in the future.
