If Only

From a report posted yesterday on the website of the Israel Foreign Ministry about the continual rockets on southern Israel:

The lives of the citizens of southern Israel are threatened with each launch.  More than a hundred thousand Israelis are trying to celebrate the eight-day festival of Hannukah, as well as to carry on with their normal day-to-day activities, only to be interrupted time and again by the warning sirens of an incoming missile.  They have only a few seconds to try to find cover, to pray that this time the rocket won't explode in a house, a school or a crowded supermarket.  A whole generation of children is growing up in fear, dreading the next attack that could cut short their young lives, as has happened to too many of their neighbors.

If only there were a Jewish state to protect these people.

And if only there were objective Jewish reporters in the media to bring this injustice to the world's attention.

The IAF started the job this morning, and I pray Israeli forces successfully complete the job over the next few days.
