The Terrorist Regime Next Door
(Washington Times) Editorial - Since Israel withdrew from Gaza last summer, more than 500 rockets have been fired at Israeli civilian targets from PA-controlled Gaza, hitting schools, kindergartens, farms, private homes, and factories. In Sderot, an Israel town several miles from the Gaza border, an estimated one-third of the children suffer from post-traumatic stress disorder as a result of the near-daily rocket barrages from Gaza, where Hamas is now in charge. Security threats emanating from Gaza have been further exacerbated by the fact that weapons smuggling from Egypt has increased dramatically following Israel's pullout last year.
