(Ynet News) Ron Ben-Yishai - The small Salafi organization which fired a rocket into the Israeli town of Sderot on Wednesday sees itself as one of ISIS' branches in Gaza. It is trying to get Israel to bash Hamas in order to take Hamas' place. Hamas is aware of that and is arresting the organization's members and preventing them from firing rockets. IDF Intelligence knows very well that Hamas is not interested in another round of fighting at this time. The leadership of its military wing believes it is not sufficiently prepared for the next war. At the same time, Israel cannot permit a situation in which a rocket is occasionally fired from Gaza.
