Islamic Jihad: We are firing more accurate rockets
Islamic Jihad: We are firing more accurate rockets
Ali Waked Published: 12.28.06, 01:21

More than 60 rockets fired at Israel since supposed ceasefire declared month ago, including three Wednesday night. Islamic Jihad Spokesman Abu Ahmad says in conversation with Ynet that rocket-firing cells aiming at targets, strategic facilities using accurate maps, promises that worst is yet to come: 'Israelis must prepare for upcoming terror attacks'


The Islamic Jihad seemingly didn't receive notice of the ceasefire. From their stand point, the rocket firing will continue.

Their rocket-firing cells are aiming at strategic facilities and threaten to reach longer ranges than they have in the past. Spokesman of Islamic Jihad's military arm, al-Quds Brigades, Abu Ahmad claimed in an interview with Ynet that this is just the beginning. His organization is simultaneously preparing for a wave of suicide attacks to be carried out within Israel.

According to the spokesman, "Only the situation on the ground and the Israeli escalation dictate our response, and not any other sort of calls declarations."

1. yes, israel is provoking....
Only the situation on the ground and the Israeli escalation dictate our response,.

..i guess israel is really escalating by not attacking back.....so....when israel actually does retailiate i suppose we'll hear how "bad" israel is, which means that a large bunch of people, given the choices prefer the israelis to be terrorizied.

if there is an alternative, i would love to hear it....

2. It is as you say; what Israeli military reaction has there been? None
despite the daily rocket attacks continuing to hit Israel during this "ceasefire" which only one side is upholding. Only Israel is abiding by this ceasefire.

Why should Israel allow these rocket attacks to continue without retaliating
