| Israeli killed by Palestinian rocket | |
| 2008-02-27 | |
| A Palestinian rocket struck a college campus in southern Israel on Wednesday, killing a man and lightly injuring another person, Israeli medical officials said. The rocket barrage occurred hours after an Israeli airstrike killed five Hamas militants in the Gaza Strip, and raised the likelihood of even more intense Israeli attacks. Palestinian officials said two people, including a civilian, were killed in a second Israeli airstrike carried out at the time of the rocket attack. The Hamas militant group, which controls Gaza, claimed responsibility for the rocket fire. It said it had launched more than 20 rockets at Israel, including eight at Sderot, the town where the deadly strike took place. Israeli media said the rocket exploded in a parking lot at Sapir College. Israeli officials said a student, about 30 years old, was struck in the heart by shrapnel and died. Israeli TV stations showed a second man being carried on a stretcher with wounds to his legs.

| #9 hmmmm "marc", I guess there was a IDF attack on terrorists who held three children as human shields, is that what you're saying? Only cowards and terrorists and their traitorous sympathizers (marc?) would not equate human shields with cowardice and subhuman behavior...so where are you, "marc?" |

| #7 I thought the 47 rockets was a response to the IDF killing 3 children in Gaza earlier in the day??? I did not see that story on Rantburg. I guess it did not happen. |

| #6 One would think 47 missiles and dozens of mortars would get a walking artillery response... Guess I don't think... |

| #5 Then they showed up quickly again.. Ronnie Yihya, 47, father of 4, was killed, 10 people injured, in heavy Palestinian missile-mortar barrage Wednesday Ronnie Yihya was a student at Sapir College outside Sderot. He came from Moshav Bitchah near Ofakim in southern Israel. He was killed and a second student critically injured by a direct Qassam hit to the campus, Wednesday, Feb. 27. A massive 47-missle barrage and dozens of mortar rounds fired from Gaza crashed into Sderot, Shear Hanegev, the Off Kor factory’s canteen, just after 200 employees had left, and several more civilian locations bordering on the Gaza Strip. Ten people were injured and dozens suffered shock. The last four exploded in Ashkelon, causing a partial electricity outage, striking the Barzilai regional hospital and industrial zone and leaving several people in shock. |

| #2 The Hamas militant group, which controls Gaza, claimed responsibility for the rocket fire. If this occurred anywhere else on the planet this would be an Act of War. But since its only Jews who would be killed the UN (and EU and MSM....) treats it more like a feature then a bug... How do you think Obama would support Israel? |
