The West Bank is run by the corrupt Palestinian Authority and Gaza is controlled by Hamas and Islamic Jihad, designated terrorist organizations backed by Iran. Just one month after millions of dollars were released to Gaza in April, Israel, America's strongest ally in the Middle East and a crucial security partner, is under attack. Thousands of rockets have been fired into the sovereign country in a matter of days. Children have been killed after shrapnel penetrated their bomb shelters. The leaders of Hamas and Islamic Jihad have brazenly admitted they are proxy forces engaged in a war against Israel on behalf of Iran.
