Talk about making a statement! The Israelis, whose patience has to be near its end with all of the missiles coming in from Gaza, flattened the Hamas Interior Ministry building. I'm not sure of the time of day or evening but it was empty so no bad guys got dead but I'm sure the Israelis were more than likely sending the signal.
Here's an example of a Gaza woman whining about the attack:
"My house did not only shake, it jumped from its foundations and back down. How could they drop such a bomb in a residential area on top of people's heads?" she said
Now, I'd like to ask this same palestinian woman a question. How could Hamas have their governmental building in the middle of a residential area? How come YOU didn't complain to Hamas that they were putting you and your neighbors in danger? Why didn't the mighty Hamas grow a pair and put their buildings in plain view?
As far as the missile attacks from Gaza, it is apparent that al Qaeda influences may be in effect in that the missiles are coming from mobile vans as opposed to more traditional pali land based sites. The camouflaged vans drive around and around and around for hours until they appear to have lost surveillance then stop and fire off missiles and then retreat. I hope the Israelis realize that al Qaeda influence will ever change the code of battle on the Gaza border.
Here's the full story.

Israel flattens Hamas ministry in Gaza Strip
GAZA (Reuters) - Israel bombed the Hamas-run Interior Ministry in Gaza and closed border crossings with the strip on Friday, sharply escalating what it called a campaign to halt Palestinian rocket attacks.
The four-storey ministry complex in Gaza City was empty at the time but one woman was killed and at least 30 others nearby were wounded in the air strike, medical officials said.
"It felt like an earthquake," said Umm Fahmi, a woman who lives across from the blast site.
A second Israeli air strike minutes later damaged Hamas's so-called naval headquarters in the central Gaza Strip.
Israel has killed at least 33 Palestinians in Gaza this week as part of what officials describe as a stepped-up campaign to pressure Hamas to rein in militants who have fired more than 110 rockets into the Jewish state in the last three days alone.
An Israeli army spokeswoman confirmed the air strikes, calling the targets "Hamas terrorist" positions.
"This is part of our response to Qassam (rocket) fire against Israel," the spokeswoman said.
