Israel launches two more air strikes on Gaza
2008-12-18
GAZA CITY - Israeli warplanes conducted two nighttime air strikes against the Gaza Strip following rocket fire against Israel, witnesses said Thursday.

The raids, which targeted metal workshops in the towns of Jabaliya and Khan Yunis in the north and south caused extensive material damage but no injuries, witnesses and medical sources said. The Israeli military confirmed the air strikes and said the workshops were used to manufacture rockets.

There has been upsurge in rocket attacks and Israeli reprisal air strikes ahead of the expiration Friday of a six-month ceasefire.

A Palestinian man was killed during an Israeli air raid on Gaza on Wednesday, a day in which 19 rockets were fired from Gaza into Israel according to the Israeli military.

#4  The world has changed somewhat recently but the darn sickening old media is still trying to redirect unworthy focus on such endless Baalestinian barfs.

#3  Not cost effective to shoot down $120 rail-guided rockets. Instant counter-battery is your best entertainment value.

#2  I would like to know why is not some type of anti-missile system covering Gaza. I read (probably here) that they have a fancy new radar but I have heard nothing about what anti-missile hardware might be in the pipe. Is Israel keeping a new system under wraps? Or are they suffering from the Not Invented Here Syndrome?
