Bad News In Aza

Yeaterday, there was a sure bad feeling in the air. As two Israeli soldiers were killed, one badly wounded and one was kidnapped. Hamas tunneled from the Gaza Strip to an Israeli Army outpost nearby, roughly 800 meters or 900 feet, and attacked. For the past weeks there have been numerous reports of homemade rockets being fired into Israel. The rockets are powerful enough to reach towns near Ashqelon which if I remember correctly is 12k from Aza.

It is sad. Because there is no one in Israel who doesn't know someone who is in the army. Who is doing something very dangerous for the country. And it is a bit frightening to not know what is to come. Israel has given the strip back and yet the fighting still continues.
