And those kikes are threatening the security and fundaments of Israel, they desserve the fate of Rabin and Sharon:
The firing of two Katyushas at Shlomi is a "severe incident but we do not plan to allow a change in the status quo," Defense Minister Ehud Barak said Tuesday, the day after two 107-millimeter rockets landed in the northern neighborhood.
During a tour of the northern border, Barak added that he spoke with Shlomi Municipality head Gabi Ne'eman and that together with IDF officers he intended to examine the incident, carefully assess the situation and then decide how to respond. "We will do what needs to be done," added Barak.
In the overnight attack, one of the rockets landed on the balcony of a house while the other hit a lamp post. No one was wounded but the house sustained slight damage.
It was not yet clear which group fired the rockets, but the defense establishment was examining the possibility that they were fired as an attempt by Hizbullah or other terror groups in Lebanon to disrupt Wednesday's visit of US President George W. Bush.
Ya'acov Edri, Minister of Immigrant Absorption and the development of the Negev and the Galilee, echoed the defense establishment's fears, telling Army Radio that all terror groups were trying to "ignite the region" ahead of Bush's visit.
A senior defense official said Israel held Hizbullah responsible for the attack even if the group was not directly behind the launching of the rockets. "Nothing happens in southern Lebanon without Hizbullah knowing about it," he said.
In addition, the official said Israel viewed the Lebanese government as being the ultimate authority for what happens in the country.
A senior UNIFIL officer told The Jerusalem Post that the force was conducting its own investigation into the rocket fire and that at this stage, it did not rule out any suspects, including Hizbullah, al-Qaida and radical groups in southern Lebanon.
The officer said a UNIFIL team visited Shlomi, collected evidence from the site and was working to ascertain the exact location from where the rockets were fired.
The IDF said that the reason the rocket fire went unnoticed was because the detection system on the northern border was not always operational. The army stated that the system is only activated as per security assessment and under the orders of the IDF Operations Directorate.
The army raised the level of alert along the northern border following the attack.
Simona Solomonov, who lives in the home where one of the rockets landed, described the events to Army Radio. "We heard a bang in the night but my husband said it was from the thunder and lightening. I waited for a siren telling us to go down to the shelter but it never came, so I went back to sleep. At 7 a.m. my son-in-law came back from synagogue and saw the metal (from the rocket)."
Likud MK Silvan Shalom said that the Katyusha rocket attack was yet further proof that the Second Lebanon War was a failure.
"Not only was the threat on Israel not removed, but Hizbullah's missile capacity actually grew," said Shalom.
The MK added that he was planning to propose a bill to dissolve the Knesset immediately after the publication of the final Winograd report.
On Monday night, Barak told the Council for Peace and Security that Hizbullah had more rockets than before the war in 2006.
Also Monday, Hizbullah leader Sheikh Hassan Nasrallah issued a warning to Israel, saying that the guerrilla group was prepared to deal with any "crazy adventure launched by the Zionist enemy."
"Israel will suffer an even greater defeat than that which was suffered during that July, because Hizbullah today has become stronger, braver, and more experienced," Nasrallah said during a meeting with senior Lebanese religious leaders.
Monday night's rocket fire was the first Katyusha attack since June, when two rockets landed in the Kiryat Shmona area, one hitting a car in an industrial zone north of the city and the other landing in a residential area.
The "Jihadi Badr Brigades - Lebanon branch," a previously unknown Palestinian group linked to al-Qaida, claimed responsibility for the June attack.
They will defend the "democracy" to the last living Israeli Jew. NUTS
