Violence spirals in Gaza

Following the pattern established after Israeli disengagement from Gaza, friendly Palestinians launched at least ten Kassam rockets and fired dozens of mortar shells into Israel. IDF retaliated nonsensically: destroyed two rocket launchers (primitive tripods) in hugely expensive air strike, killed a few Palestinian civilians and a couple of Hamas members even though Hamas frantically presses the PIJ and PRC to stop attacking Israel. Fatah sponsors Palestinian Islamic Jihad, Popular Resistance Committees, and the Dughmushes (Army of Islam) to provoke Israeli retaliation and upset Hamas. Israel stupidly dances the Fatah line instead of cooperating with honest and responsible Hamas.
