Rockets fired at Israeli targets from Gaza

As expected, the Hamas, with the PLO's complete tolerance, fired rockets in Sderot's direction yesterday. Israel National News has the story. (Via Bear to the Right.)

Unsurprisingly, the government has thus far failed to respond properly to the attack:
The IDF has yet to respond to the attack, though PM Sharon has repeatedly promised to deal harshly with post-withdrawal terrorism emanating from Gaza. Other proponents of the withdrawal, as well, have promised that after such a withdrawal, Israel will be able to respond harshly to attacks over her borders.

Sderot Mayor Eli Moyal questioned why the IDF did not respond to Thursday’s Kassam rocket attack. He said that officials promised that following the Disengagement, any rockets fired into the western Negev from Gaza would be met with a stern response.

Moyal added he will not be responsible for the welfare of students in schools with rooftops that were not fortified to withstand rocket attacks, adding those schools simply will not open.
One more reason why this government cannot continue.

Update: Knesset member Ayoob Kara told the World Jewish Congress in late April why Sharon's disengagement plan only bolsters the opportunity for Hamas to be able to build up their terrorist activities.
