Two rockets have been fired into northern Israel from Lebanon. There were no immediate reports of casualties or damage.

Remnants of a Katyusha rocket were found in Israel, police said.

Israel and the Lebanese militant and political group Hezbollah fought a devastating 34-day war across the border in July 2006.

This was triggered by a Hezbollah raid into Israel, in which the group seized two soldiers and killed others.

On the Lebanese side more than 1,000 people died, mostly civilians. About 160 Israelis - most of them soldiers - died in the fighting and rocket fire.

The border has been tense, but largely quiet. There have been occasional clashes and rocket fire, for which Hezbollah has denied responsibility.


BBC NEWS | Middle East | Rockets hit Israel from Lebanon
The war-mongers from Lebanon strike again.
 
The report says 8 shells were fired in response towards a fruit plantation.

How did the return fire have a target so quick? Any report of culprits hit?

The place of launch is located, and is being bombed.
It's a matter of seconds really.
 
The stupidity of the human race never ceases to amaze me. Will these groups simply remain in a perpetual war with Israel forever? I tire of this ridiculousness and should think that the Arabian people would finally grow weary of this futile attempts and stop supporting these groups.

I hope this is the one and only rocket launch the perps ever get to try then. Hopefully nobody was hurt on the other end of the launches.
 
Ok, you do know how I feel about Hizbollah and you do know how much I want them to disarm and leave Israel alone.

But just for the hell of it, I'm going to use your own logic Apocalypse, that you used in the thread about Al-Dura and quote the article which you posted.

It says:

"He (Israeli resident Ephraim Goldsaid) said Israeli troops were in the area to investigate the source of the attacks."


Your article also says:

"The border has been tense, but largely quiet. There have been occasional clashes and rocket fire, for which Hezbollah has denied responsibility."

Usually Hizbollah proudly boast about their attacks don't they ?

So, how do you know that it was not Israel who fired the rockets on its own territory in order to have an excuse to attack Lebanon ?

Just using your logic, that's all.

You do not understand my logic, so I can see why it would be hard for you to use it.

Anyway, I didn't hear anyone saying anything about Hezbollah, it was probably those Palestinian liberation terror-freaks again, it's usually them when sole rockets are being launched from Lebanon.

Words fail me. That's about as foolish as I've ever seen on these forums.

Given that the report says the Israelis have fired into a fruit plantation I can't begin to imagine Israeli commanders and strategists putting that kind of effort into bombing some apricots.

No but she says at the end of the comment "that's just your logic" so it must be my logic right?? :mrgreen:

I didn't even understand how is that my logic, in the other thread we were simply speaking about witnesses and their accounts not being equal to an evidence. :confused:
 
So how do you know that it was the Palestinian terror freaks ?
I'm guessing.
The word probably, Mira, think about the word probably.

So probably means that we don't know who fired them.

So you are posting this thread in order to inform us that rockets have hit Israel but we have no idea where they came from.
 
Giving links to other, off-topic, threads in a breaking news thread.
You must be very concerned about it. :confused:

I am quite concerned about your ability to deny an incident where numerous witnesses including Israeli soldiers have testified.

I have no intentions to hijack the thread. Just invited our friend to go read the other thread.

Yes.
I was posting a breaking news article from BBC, that informs on two rockets that have been launched from Lebanon and fell in the Israeli city of Nahariya.

Is there a point to all of this?

Deny?
I simply do not relate to witnesses accounts as facts, why would you be so obsessed with it if it is a globally accepted rule in every justice system in the world?

So what proves that the rockets were fired from Lebanon ?

I can see where this is going and you are completely off the line.

The BBC refers to it as a fact, ask them how do they know.

This lies in contrary to the Guardian article that has clearly not referred to that other incident as a fact.

The BBC article said "they are investigating to know where the rockets were fired from"

even better, a resident of Nahraya said " Israeli troops were in the area to investigate the source of the attacks."

How is this considered to be fact ?
