| More Gaza Rockets Hit Israel |
| 2009-03-01 |
| Palestinians fired two advanced Kassam rockets probably Grad-style that were made in iran in pieces and reassembled in Gaza at Ashkelon on Saturday Feb 28 morning, in an attack that saw one projectile tear through an empty school, destroy classrooms, and spray shrapnel in all directions. The two rockets, which were retrieved and analyzed by police sappers, had a 170-mm. diameter, which allowed for a greater amount of explosives to be packed inside. Police on Saturday said 65 rockets and mortar shells have hit the South since the end of Operation Cast Lead on January 18, leading to four light injuries. |

| #7 How many Ksssams will another 436 million euros buy? That was my thought too. I'm guessing about half gets skimmed off the top with the 36 mill & change for 'misc. expenses'. That only leaves 200 million to spend on actual armament. |

| #6 How many Ksssams will another 436 million euros buy? Not as many as the $900 million Obama is giving them. |

| #5 Bam-Bam is taking his time. He is going to do this the right way and not rush in without both strategy and forces. I think this is what is forcing Hamas to pre-empt with Kassam's. That and the Mullahs want to see some actual field tests. I am hoping and praying he takes the initiative while Hillary is on her next mission to the area. I'd love to see him pre-empt Hillary's folly. |
