JERUSALEM (The Blaze/AP) — Gaza militants launched barrages of rockets deep into Israel early Friday and Israeli aircraft struck targets in the Palestinian territory in the aftermath of the deadliest attack against Israelis in three years.
Gunmen who appear to have originated in Gaza and crossed into southern Israel through the Egyptian desert ambushed civilian vehicles traveling on a remote road, killing eight people. Six were civilians, and two were members of Israeli security forces responding to the incursion. Newsy has more:
The attack signaled a new danger for Israel from its border with the Sinai Peninsula, long quiet under the rule of Egyptian leader Hosni Mubarak. He was deposed in February, and the desert of the Sinai Peninsula – always restive and controlled largely by Bedouin tribes – has become increasingly lawless.
The sudden spike in violence threatened to upset the already frayed ties between Israel and Egypt and escalate the conflict between Israel and Hamas in Gaza.
On Friday, militants in Gaza launched at least 10 rockets into Israel, the military said. One, aimed at the city of Ashkelon, was intercepted by the new Israeli anti-missile system known as Iron Dome. Another hit next to a synagogue in the port city of Ashdod and wounded six Israelis, according to Israeli emergency services. See raw footage of the aftermath, below:
Israel’s south has been equipped with early warning systems and bomb shelters over years of rocket fire from Gaza, and those measures have helped keep casualties low.
The Israeli military’s chief spokesman, Brig. Gen. Yoav Mordechai, said it was “too early” to say that a broad escalation in Gaza was imminent.
“If we see that Hamas is choosing to escalate, we will not hesitate to expand the scope of our actions, respond in strength and exact a price from Hamas,” he told Israel Army Radio on Friday morning.
Egyptian officials said five Egyptian security personnel died as a result of Thursday’s gunbattles. An Egyptian security official said three died Thursday and two others died of wounds on Friday. He said they were apparently caught in a crossfire as Israeli soldiers chased the attackers.
On Friday the Egyptian news agency said Egypt filed an official protest over the deaths and called on Israel to investigate. The news agency said the Egyptian army chief of staff, Maj. Gen. Sami Anan, who is also second in command of Egypt’s ruling military council, went to Sinai to head up Egypt’s inquiry.
The military said Friday that Israeli forces killed seven militants during the clash. The military did not release their identities.
Israel responded hours after the border attack with an airstrike in Gaza that killed five members of the Palestinian group that Israel said was behind it, an organization known as the Popular Resistance Committees. The dead included the group’s leader.

A spokesman for the group, Abu Mujahid, would not confirm or deny responsibility for the attack inside Israel, but said militants would avenge the killing of the men in Gaza.
Hamas, which controls Gaza, denied any connection with the attacks but hurriedly evacuated all of its security facilities Thursday in anticipation of more Israeli retaliation. Those strikes continued through the night and past midday Friday, targeting what the military said were smuggling tunnels and sites used by gunmen.
Hamas officials said two children, 3 and 13, were killed in the Israeli strikes.
Also Friday, dozens of Palestinians trying to reach the Al-Aqsa Mosque in Jerusalem for Muslim prayers during the Muslim holy month of Ramadan scuffled with police at one of the gates to the Old City. The police were allowing access only to older Muslims in a measure police said is meant to prevent unrest.
The officers used a water cannon to disperse the crowd and made several arrests, police said. No injuries were reported.
The violence in the south focused Israel’s attention on its border with Egypt – 125 miles (200 kilometers) of mountainous desert with no fence for most of its length. Bedouin smugglers ferrying drugs and thousands of African asylum-seekers into Israel have crossed the border almost unimpeded for years.
Thursday’s attack – the deadliest for Israel since a Palestinian gunman killed eight people in a Jerusalem religious seminary in 2008 – took place near Israel’s popular Red Sea resort city of Eilat, currently at the height of the tourist season.
Though the desert outside Eilat showed signs of an increased military presence on Friday morning, the city itself appeared unaffected. Joggers and cyclists were visible along the beach.
Resident Zion Cohen, 53, said the steady stream of African migrants crossing the border with ease in recent years showed that an incursion like the one on Thursday was only a matter of time.
“What bothers me is the unbearable ease with which they cross the border and the knowledge that … every day, every minute and every hour something can happen like yesterday,” Cohen said.
A new fence is currently under construction, and the military says it will be completed by the end of 2012.
The attack came after a prolonged period without negotiations between Israel and the Western-backed Palestinian leadership in the West Bank. That deadlock has led the Palestinians to unilaterally seek recognition of statehood at the United Nations next month, a largely symbolic move opposed by Israel and the U.S.

Right down to a 2 month old infant…these Islamist animals walked into a Jewish home at night and butchered the entire family.
Let Rose-Ellen babble away…Hamas’ own charter quotes the Hadith (one of the 3 holy books of Islam) that ALL Jews must be wiped out.
…the Islamic Resistance Movement aspires to realize the promise of Allah, no matter how long it takes. The Prophet, Allah’s prayer and peace be upon him, says: “The hour of judgment shall not come until the Muslims fight the Jews and kill them, so that the Jews hide behind trees and stones, and each tree and stone will say: ‘Oh Muslim, oh servant of Allah, there is a Jew behind me, come and kill him,’ except for the Gharqad tree, for it is the tree of the Jews.” (Sahih Muslim, Book 41, Number 6985)

Posted on August 19, 2011 at 10:24pmThat’s why RON PAUL knows we should stay out of this. That would allow Israel off the U.N. leash. They want to be untethered to take care of this big mess. That would keep us out of it, although accomplishing the same objective. Of Course we would help Israel if needed. They are big boys with over 300 nukes. Being Allied with The U.S. and the U.N. is stymieing their ability to create a big playground for the children to play together, like you said. That would be nice if they could ever live harmoniously. Although I believe we are criminals ( American Governments Military / Industrial Complex ) by being Neo-Cons, I believe the Israelis have been threatened enough, to justifiably defend themselves and nip this in the bud, and be done with it !!!!

The land is occupied because the stupid arabs waged war instead of peace, they lost, end of discussion. The Arabs rather then become productive and work for peace these many, many years, decided that terrorism and murder was an answer, as you can see it is not. When the Arabs decide that peace is best then they will have peace, but they choose to die, and the Israelis are obliged to insure they die, simple is it not?? The Arabs in general will never accept Jews on any small part of land, but you know what?? The Jews are still there, say what you will but that is fact.

The very first point on that link is wrong!
From your link:
MYTH 1: ISRAEL OCCUPIES ARAB PALESTINE
The actual truth!
The Israeli-occupied territories are the territories which have been designated as occupied territory by the United Nations and many other international organizations, governments and others to refer to the territory seized by Israel during the Six-Day War of 1967 from Egypt, Jordan, and Syria. They consist of the West Bank, the Gaza Strip and much of the Golan Heights and, until 1982, the Sinai Peninsula. The West Bank and Gaza Strip are also referred to as the Palestinian territories or Occupied Palestinian Territory. The Palestinian Authority, the EU,[1] and the UN Security Council[2] consider East Jerusalem to be part of the West Bank, a position disputed by Israel. Israel has annexed East Jerusalem by the Jerusalem Law.
As far as rejecting the offer of a Palestinian state. If I stole $1,000 from you, and after fighting about it for years decided I’d give you $500, would you take it?
Also, the link you supplied was by David Horowitz from the Freedom Center. That’s not biased at all! LMAO!!
I’m not saying what the arab, and Muslim world are doing is the right thing, but they are revolting against an occupation, and had their land taken by force! If canada stole MN, MT, and SD I think there are some Americans that might take issue with that! LOL

Most of the middle east, north and west of the persian gulf was give to the children of Abraham by God Himself in Genesis. Here is a map of it. http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_2xmHOoPqAIQ/SWpCmzRLrXI/AAAAAAAAAtE/yHjiIvn3sAE/s1600-h/greater_israel.gif
If you live in this area and you are not a Jew, you are an illegal squatter. Sorry that the UN, the ungodly do not recognize Gods words but I try. I support Israel. Educate yourself, and dont believe everything you read on Wikipedia.

But you couldn’t figure out how to post your response on the relevant thread?

Posted on August 19, 2011 at 1:15pmI can’t believe all the anti-zionism coming from American jews. I hear my jewish friends blasting their zionist jewish friends about the subject. Gotta keep those entitlements coming in, eh?
