A Night of Rockets, and a Morning of Fear
(New York Times) Iyad Abuheweila - Gazans took to the streets on Tuesday evening, cheering the thunderous sounds of rockets being fired toward Israel. Some whistled and chanted. "Go! Go! Go!" they shouted. "God is with you." Nadal Issa, 27, recalled standing by a window of his home and watching the rockets take flight. "I was praying from my heart that the rockets reached the heart of Tel Aviv," he said. But on Wednesday morning the cheers had stopped as Israel responded with airstrikes.
