Hamas fires rocket at school bus because there were no military targets available

The cowardice of Hamas in targeting a school bus goes beyond any rational.  These are bloodthirsty monsters out to destroy Israel, terrorize the population with the goal of eliminating Jews from not just Israel, but the earth.  Genocide is their game, and no amount of hand-wringing will cloud their hatred and Islamist program.

Hamas is evil.


From The Jerusalem Post April 8 by Yaakov Katz and Yaakov Lappin

Boy, 16, badly hurt after Hamas fires missle at school bus
Many children had just got off when vehicle was struck with anti-tank missile in Negev; Palestinians fire 45 mortars, rockets after attack.

An anti-tank missile fired from the Gaza Strip struck a school bus in the Negev on Thursday, critically wounding a 16-year-old boy and setting off a fierce round of clashes between the IDF and Palestinian terrorists.

The missile, which was fired by Hamas, hit the bus moments after most of the children got off, while it was driving near Kibbutz Saad, about 2.5 km. from Gaza. Only two people were on the bus when it was hit – the driver, who was lightly injured, and the boy, who was en route to visit his grandmother. The bus driver is a friend of the family.

Immediately after the attack, Palestinians fired more than 45 mortar shells and Katyusha and Kassam rockets into Israel.

One of the Grad-model Katyusha rockets
was intercepted by the Iron Dome counter-rocket defense system deployed south of Ashkelon, proving its capabilities in combat for the first time.

IDF officers said that the attack – the first time an anti-tank missile was fired deep into Israel, and, officers believe, deliberately targeting the school bus – “crossed all red lines” and that Hamas would pay dearly.

Let's hope so, and the sooner the better.
