Less than an hour ago, Palestinian Peace Rockets of Love and Firey Death were shot from Gaza at Israeli Jewish civilians in the southern city of Ashkelon.  Bringing a message of love and peace through explosions and shrapnel, the Palestinian Peace Rockets of Love and Firey Death fell like flaming butterflies upon Israeli Jewish civilians.

As the Hamas spokesperson said, 'nothing shows our love and respect and desire for peace like trying to blow you up and kill your children.'

In Jerusalem, the Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu may be looking at the rocket attack as mana from heaven.  Under political threat because of rumors that his wife may be indicted (for trivial issues) and he may be indicted for advisors taking advantage and a percentage of a military equipment deal and/or political financial support from abroad, it's a perfect wag the dog moment for him to take a real attack and threat and turn it into an active war.  And trivial or questionable claims or indictments disappear when there's an active national threat.  I am not claiming that Netanyahu will do this...but you couldn't hand him a more perfect scenario.

The crazy question becomes...is there someone in Gaza supporting Netanyahu by handing him a completely valid pretext for starting a war?

And given 2 of my sons are in active service in southern Israel, should I worry?

May Hashem bless and protect Klal Yisroel, the nation & people of Israel, and curse, deter, and destroy our enemies.
