Re: Serious Escalation By Hamas
Yep, less talk, just simply destroy it. It will send the most convincing message to Hamas (as if they will listen of course, which they will not, but it will slow them down).

Re: Serious Escalation By Hamas
I don't think I would want to be near the factory right now, I would not
be suprised to learn shortly that the IDF have taken care of it.

Perhaps. You may be right on target. I urge him to show restraint! (just kidding).
Actually there's a condition with warfare, or a couple conditions that 1) everything might seem worse than it actually is and 2) it's possible to become slightly "drunk" with military power (or any "power" for that matter).
After the hundreds of Qassam and Qassam-2 rockets fired, some of which have killed people, there's no need to get crazy over one. Simply send in a couple F-16's and destroy the factory that made then and the sites where they are stored.
There are far worse things to happen to reserve total war for.

Despite ongoing IDF operations in the northern Gaza Strip, a Kassam rocket landed Tuesday evening in Ashkelon proper - the first time the city center has witnessed such an attack.

There must be something else going on here or Olmert has had a serious personality change in the past 14 days.

Check the wording out here, too:

In a speech at the home of US Ambassador to Israel Richard Jones, marking the American Fourth of July holiday, Prime Minister Ehud Olmert called the attack, "an escalation of hostilities like none other."
He said that Israel would not remain silent, and that Hamas would be the first to feel the Israeli response, vowing "far-reaching consequences," for the missile attack.

Qassams aren't much of a threat, in reality. Unless they do find the guts (and they probably will) to put a binary chemical shell on them. It's just a terrorism weapon, though it can kill in small numbers.
Yes Gaza has become the terrorism-haven we feared though. Same with any land surrounding Israel or that they give up.

PM: This is an escalation of hostilities like none other
By JPOST.COM STAFF
Despite ongoing IDF operations in the northern Gaza Strip, a Kassam rocket landed Tuesday evening in Ashkelon proper - the first time the city center has witnessed such an attack.
No one was wounded in the attack, despite the fact that the rocket hit a school in a populated area in the south of the city. Children playing soccer outside the ORT-Ronson High School on Rehov Ben Zvi were thrown back by the force of the explosion, witnesses reported, but were unharmed. The school suffered some damage.
Security officials described the Kassam as "upgraded," featuring two engines. Police Cmdr. Uri Barlev said that security forces had seen this type of rocket in the past. "This type of missile has landed in other places," he said.
Hamas' military wing, Izzadin al-Kassam, claimed responsibility for the attack, adding that the rocket had been upgraded to achieve a range of over 15 kilometers. Security officials reported that the rocket was launched from the open territory between the former northern Gaza settlements of Nisanit and Dugit.Tags: None
