If Hamas continues the present rate of Qassam launches out of the Gaza Strip, then we may anticipate the eventual eradication of Beit Hanun by the IDF and IAF.
Israel will continue to allow the launches until it feels
there has been enough activity to justify a vicious retaliation in the eyes of the United States and Great Britain.

At least 54 Qassams have rocked Sderot since Friday

At least 54 Qassams
have hit Sderot since Friday, and the attacks from the Gaza strip are having a detrimental effect on the merchants and residents of this economically disadvantaged Negev town. “This is how it is after a Qassam, sales go down about 40 percent,” one merchant said.
A Ramle man selling Bukharan bread nearby shouted: “The Bukharan people are not afraid of a Qassam!”
One woman from the Caucasus described her distress in broken Hebrew, citing two major problems: the Qassams that have caused the schools to close down for now because they cannot offer adequate security, and the welfare-to-work Wisconsin Plan that compels its participants to go to their jobs, even if their children are home. “The Wisconsin center.
Not good. Qassam. Need a bre
ak. Everyone needs. Sitting on the ground.
Scared. Not protected,” she said. One of her friends helped her out, saying: ” Why do we have to go to Wisconsin when the school is shut down
? What about the children?”
Back in Sderot, Mayor Eli Moyal said he hasn’ t slep
t for two days. While the residents have been holding impromptu roadside discussions on the best way to stop the Qassams, Moyal waited at the entrance to his home for an interview with Channel 2. He has a solution, too.
“We have to eradicate Beit Hanun,” he said, referring to the town in Gaza. “If it’s their children or ours, then I choose ours.”
