Islamic Jihad launches two homemade rockets into southern Israel
2006-09-20
The Islamic Jihad (Holy War) militants on Tuesday afternoon launched two homemade rockets from northern Gaza Strip at southern Israeli town of Sderot, the group said in a leaflet. In the leaflet sent to reporters, Jihad said that the two rockets hit their targets in Sderot, causing hospitalization of three Israelis for suffering shocks. The group defended its attacks in the leaflet by saying that " it's our right to resist the occupier that occupies our lands and kill our people everyday" and vowed to continue such attacks against Israel.

The Israeli army also confirmed the rockets attack from northern Gaza, but said that no damages or casualties were caused as the two rockets landed at an empty opened areas near Sderot. On Sunday, the group launched two homemade rockets at a street of Sderot, wounding an Israeli slightly.

#3  Doesn't Israel have a couple of Hamas gummit types they can snuff to send back a message?

#2  I hope the IDF finds and neutralizes these clowns.

In the meantime has there been anymore news on the Israeli soldiers that were kidnapped?

#1  "The Islamic Jihad (Holy War) militants..."

This is to distinguish them from Barney (Purple Blob) the Dinosaur. Apparently The People's Daily, that stalwart bastion of ChiCom Truthy News, doesn't think their readers would otherwise comprehend the actors of the article. That the rockets are "homemade" is equivalent in value to the fact that Barney sings sappy insipid kiddie songs.
