Three Qassam Missiles Hit Israel Today


Three Qassam missiles, fired from Gaza, have hit Israel in western Negev. And so, Hamas has made its statement. The missiles won't end.
So, after I had made the bold statement that the Israelis would be lashing back by now over the Jerusalem massacre and nothing has been seen, the pukes at Hamas continue the barrage of missiles.
One has to wonder what exactly the master plan is on the jihadist side. I'm going to propose another scenario of the strategy behind Hamas, Hezbollah and Iran.

A Strategy of Repetition

What I am looking at is a strategy coming out of Iran that Hamas would embark on this sustained barrage of missile attacks as phase one. The intention is to literally make the daily missile launches into Israel a normal occurence. The idea is to numb the Israeli people and the Israeli government into accepting this kind of attack as something regular and inevitable.
However, the next phase in the plan is to see the same kind of sustained attacks coming in from Hezbollah in the north. The crux of the entire strategy is to have Israeli accepting the attacks on two sides and eventually, the missile attacks will fall further and further into Israeli territory.

The final part of the strategy will see more blatant attacks with longer range missiles from Hezbollah that will force Israel to respond to the north but by then, the missile attacks will have been reaching so far into Israel that forces will find it more difficult to even move to the border. The whole time, this will weaken Israeli defenses along Gaza and distract them, thus opening up that border to a tactically arranged wave of suicide bombers and gunmen.

Perhaps a bit "out there" on my part but I certainly feel that there is a master plan here in play and the longer Israel accepts this "repetition", the more they fall into the hands of the Iranian strategists.

Here's the very brief story of the Qassam attacks from YNET.
