Fifth Qassam of day lands near strategic site in Ashkelon

Almost 30 Qassams have been fired over the last week, despite a cease-fire agreed to by Israel and the Palestinians. (its actually over 50)

so...lets hear some concrete proposals on what israel should do.....

This is a good time for all of those who criticize israel for its treatment of the Palestinians to suggest to the citizens of sederot, ashkelon, the IDF what they should do in the short term (as in today, tomorrow etc).

I believe fatah, islamic jihad, and hamas have taken responsibility for the firing as well as being responsible for the not firing as per the negotiations for the "cease fire"
________

lets see if we can have a serious discussion with concrete proposals that will affect the kassams being fired (for those who think terrorizing israeli citizens is not acceptable....)...anybody?

and lets keep in mind the "history" of the last year....israels withdrawl, destroying all the settlements, leaving the greenhouses, attacks on karni and its closure, attacks on rafah crossings, egypts refusal to open "the gates" the EU observers refusal to travel to rafah to open it ..and of course the kassams from day one and israeli reprisals...

at this point i dont know the situation at the rafah crossing....
