Report: Rockets fired from Egypt hit Israel
Two major Israeli newspapers are reporting that rockets fired from Egypt have hit Israel.
“Terrorists in the Sinai Peninsula launched rockets into Israel Friday night,” reports the Jerusalem Post. “The rockets fell near an Israeli village on the southern border, causing some damage, but no injuries.”
The Israeli daily Haaretz reports, “Rockets fired from direction of Egypt toward Eshkol Regional Council.”
It appears no damage was reported in connection with the rocket fire from Egypt. Earlier today, the Egyptian prime minister visited Gaza to express solidarity with the Palestinians there.

Israel is 1/5 the size of my home state of Missouri. I visited Israel in 2005. What other nation in this hell bound world is expected to accept this type of existence?
The stage is set folks. Know what you believe and be ready to stand and give a defense of it.

Islam has blinded Egypt. They really have no idea about the size of the hornet’s nest they’re poking with their little stick.

69% of Jews voted for Obama.
Elections have consequences.
When I find myself in a hole, I stop digging.
Other people, not so much. We tried to help, to elect a person that would stregthen the umbrella.
But they voted for the guy that said it wasn’t raining.
Own it. Life is hard. It’s harder when you’re stupid.

Israel should retake the Sinai peninsula, then deport every muslem in Israel, the West Bank, and the Gaza strip there – leaving a 5 mile wide free fire zone between it and their border.

Not good. Could just be a probe checking out Obama’s steely determination to stand by

The Sinai is probably kind of hard to hide in. I assume the IDF has thermal imaging on their aircraft and I heard it gets kind of chilly at night in the desert.

The IDF is very well equipped. But they are a virtual island, surrounded.

I’m not sure if it is true anymore, but there was a survey done where the mohammedians in Israel had a more favorable impression of governmental services in Israel than Jews.
Blew my mind.

What an amazing coincidence that war is breaking out in the middle east with Israel as the target right after the Marxist Muslim gets re-elected.

And it’s even harder when an entire election is fraudulent and covered up by a fraudulent press.

Re-electing a closet Muslim because Romney fibbed in 1994 about being a progressive wasn’t such a great idea after all.
The party in charge corrupt to its core, the opposition weak, the MB in charge of Egypt, Al Qaeda on the run all across the Middle East and soon towards us again, the American media incompetent and corrupt and our intelligence apparatus compromised. And the culture thoroughly debased.

Exactly as obama had planned.
