Hezbollah rockets kill 12 in Israel
By JOSEPH PANOSSIAN, Associated Press Writer
13 minutes ago
BEIRUT, Lebanon - Hezbollah guerrillas unleashed their deadliest barrage of rockets yet into northern Israel, killing at least 12 people...as fighting only intensified despite a draft U.N. cease-fire resolution.
Hezbollah and its allies rejected the draft resolution, saying its terms for a halt in fighting do not address Lebanon's demands in a signal that the nearly 4-week-old battle will burn on.
Hezbollah fired a barrage of rockets late Sunday on the port city of Haifa, injuring dozens of people, in the heaviest attack on Israel's third largest city since fighting began.
News reports said one person was killed, and emergency services said more than 30 people were injured. A Haifa fire department spokeman said one crowded residential district suffered five or six hits and there were many casualties.
Hezbollah fired a volley of 80 rockets at several other Israeli towns. One of them made a direct hit on a crowd of people at the entrance of the communal farm of Kfar Giladi, killing 11 people, rescue workers said. [One of the critically wounded died later, bringing the death toll to 12.]
In this image made available by the Israeli Defence Force August 5, Israeli soldiers are seen planting their national flag on a small hill in neighboring Lebanon.
And I will appoint a place for My people Israel, and will plant them, that they may dwell in their own place, and be disquieted no more; neither shall the children of wickedness afflict them any more. 2 Samuel Chapter 7-10

By the way, in these vicious indiscriminate rocket attacks, the Hezbollah thugs are killing Arabs as well as Jews.
A relative mourns after a rocket hit a house, killing three people and wounded five others, in the Israeli-Arab village of Arab al-Aramshe near the border between Israel and Lebanon, August 5, 2006.

A seriously injured Israeli is brought into the hospital after a being wounded in a Hezbollah rocket attack in the northern Israel town of Kiryat Shmona.

A man who was severely wounded in a rocket attack in Akko, is treated at the hospital in Nahariya, before being transferred to a more advanced hospital in Haifa, Israel.

Israeli medics help a young woman [hardly more than a girl] wounded by a Katyusha-style rocket fired from southern Lebanon.

Where is the outrage at the UN? These are deliberate attacks on non military civilian areas of Israel. These attacks will continue until we work hand in hand with the Israelis to eliminate Syria and Iran.

70 years ago: Hitler rearms [Germany] in direct violation of the treaty of Versailles and then proceeds to remilitarize the strategic Rhineland region. All of this was in direct violation of the Treaty but yet no nation attempted to stop Hitler. France was in particular position to act and could have easily ended Hitler's militaristic expansion but did not do so fearing war.
Now: The UN turns a blind eye to the militarization of Islamo-fascist controlled nations.

When you consider the population of Israel as compared to the United States, each death would be like 50 to our country. In effect the Israeli casualties are in the scale of a few thousand on a proportional basis to the United States.
It is time for Israel to "CRY HAVOC AND LET SLIP THE DOGS OF WAR." Hezbolla is nothing but the fangs of the enemy. The body of the enemy is Syria and Iran.

Thank you for providing the photos. They are heartbreaking, but necessary to show how civilized people handle atrocities against them. There is no parading in the streets holding their dead up for photo ops.

Damascus needs to disappear literally and then Tehran if the rockets do not stop flying into Israel.Hi Norm, I agree. In the days immediately following 9/11/01, while waiting for a meeting to commence at work, I and a few others were talking about nuking Mecca or something. Interestingly, a very devout and kindly Jewish manager said no, that would make matters worse. Although I understand his point of view, I don't agree with it. I think that although a well-placed nuke won't win us any friends, it will win us respect and fear. I'd much rather have the latter.

Prayers for our beloved dear friends in Israel.
I'm mentioning this only in the event other freepers are interested: I ordered from an Israeli jewelry store a Star of David necklace with a cross in the middle of the Star; it hasn't arrived yet.
Then I was discussing with my husband what I'd really like and he encouraged me to look for something like it online and if I couldn't find it, have it made. Well, after hours of searching, I found a Star of David made of colored glass (which reminds me of stained glass windows in a church) and instead of the Ten Commandment Tablet in Hebrew in the middle of the star, the jeweler in Jerusalem is going to make a star.
If anyone is interested in such an item, please freepmail me and I will provide the link and details.
And in the interim, my ongoing and most fervent prayers for safety for our loved ones and friends in Israel.

Please clarify this. I'm not answering for Race, but I almost responded to him earlier. This may not be what he meant, but.......
Many believe that the tribulation period will not begin until the Church has been raptured. Once that happens the 7 year tribulation begins and the anti-Christ will be revealed.

Interesting thing to see in print...
nine of them reserve soldiers,
If you're a citizen of Israel, and don't have special dispensation, anyone from 18 to 50 is a "reserve soldier"
I guess that makes it OK to kill any Israeli who's between 18 and 50, since they're a soldier. Yet another thing to justify the actions of terrorists against Israel.
