Intercepted by the missile defense system. however, at least one of those rockets made its way to jerusalem and landed in an empty field. there were no injuries. but this development shocked and worried many israelis, many fled to bomb shelters for the first time in jerusalem in more than three decades. as for this particular rocket, hamas said it was an iranian-supplied rocket. this is the arsenal that the israeli military has tried to knock out. however tlooks like a number of these weapons re...

The skies of that part of the world. thousands of israeli troops massing on the border with gaza. rockets and missiles flying, as you saw. the threat of a possible ground invasion looming. but what could the white house do? what should it do as the violence escalates? soup is a professor of law and political science. these are terrorists. lets just call them what they are, hamas, who have been firing missiles into israeli neighborhoods for months and months and months. hundreds of missiles. shou...

And the same way that our country is vulnerable to those attacks and we have seen t. so our role as a global super power and as... an ally to what i believe is our best ally in the region of israel is that we should stand tall. we should defend israel and the court of world opinion, whether it is in the u.n. or other international forums and insist that the real story come out. it is hamas that has been on the offensive. israel has practiced so much patience and reluctance to go into gaza until ...

You have tel aviv only 37 miles from the gaza strip and jerusalem 43 miles away from the gaza strip. we now have rockets that have hit tel aviv and jerusalem. so if you push this down, you still have a direct hit shot into jerusalem. the question becomes, why would they fire these new rockets? these new rockets towards jerusalem, when there are hundreds of thousands of palestinians living in and around the area. the holiest site for islam is in the old city of jerusalem. right now, this situatio...
