Things seem to be heating up in Israel. As I’m writing these lines, news reports of three rockets hitting the northern city of Kiryat Shmona are all over T.V. This recent attack comes exactly one year after the second Lebanon war which took place in June of 2006 in a month long campaign between the Hizbolla terror group and Israel.
But the timing of this latest attack is interesting not only because of the symbolic date after the war but also because of what has been going on in the Gaza strip. Over the past few days a dramatic uprising has taken place with the Hammas terror group taking control of the entire Gaza strip. The next few days will tell how these developments will unfold and whether we are in for a new uproar in the entire region.
