Surprise: Hamas stored rockets near Kindergartens, mosques

Well, here's one reason that the IDF waited until late in the day to target those long-range rockets. Not only does Hamas shoot rockets at Israeli schools, they also shoot them from 'Palestinian' schools (picture from 2008).

IDF Spokesman Brig.-Gen. Yoav Mordechai blamed Palestinians in Gaza for storing weapons in residential areas of the Strip, saying, "unfortunately, some of the targets are near kindergartens and near mosques."

Saying the IDF is doing its utmost to make precision strikes, he added, "Kindergartens should be a place for learning; mosques should be a place for praying."

Unfortunately, only civilized people think that way.

I am an Orthodox Jew - some would even call me 'ultra-Orthodox.' Born in Boston, I was a corporate and securities attorney in New York City for seven years before making aliya to Israel in 1991 (I don't look it but I really am that old :-). I have been happily married to the same woman for thirty-five years, and we have eight children (bli ayin hara) ranging in age from 13 to 33 years and nine grandchildren. Four of our children are married! Before I started blogging I was a heavy contributor on a number of email lists and ran an email list called the Matzav from 2000-2004.
