For the sixth time since the August 19th terror bombing, Israeli missiles hit terrorist leaders. One Hamas leader was killed today. Israel had long promised unrelenting war against the leadership of the terrorist organizations, and this appears to be it.

Increased Palestinian rocket attacks from Gaza against Israeli targets to the north has prompted the government to assemble a brigade of troops and prepare to occupy parts of Gaza. This would make it more difficult for the Palestinians launching the home made Kassam rockets.
