Gazans continue their “peaceful” protests by firebombing IDF posts, destroying the border fence and flying bombs into Israel. There is no question that Israel will respond, with a harsh response against this blatant and dangerous aggression. The question is why is it taking so long for Israel to respond properly and end this extremely dangerous activity. Holding back from responding forcefully is only leading the Gazans to escalate their violent tactics. This eventually leads to an even deadlier response from Israel and the IDF. But why is it taking so long?
Gazans Firebomb IDF Post
Destroying Border Fence
JUST NOW: Terrorists were spotted launching arson balloons from #Gaza into #Israel. Since March, they’ve sent kites and balloons adorned with explosives and fire. They burned more than 8K acres of Israeli land. The @IAFsite fired towards the squad.

#Hamas is dedicating #Gaza‘s resources into #terror against Israel:
digging offensive terror tunnels, infiltrating into Israel & launching incendiary devices into Israel on a daily basis, causing severe damage. These violent attacks against us must stop!https://t.co/l9Nm3y2Q6A— Yuval Rotem 🇮🇱 (@Yuval_Rotem) October 15, 2018

Today in #Gaza, Palestinian terrorists invent first ever incendiary blimp for carrying explosives to attack and maim Israelis. Israelis invent devices to save lives, Gazans are inventing devices to destroy lives. pic.twitter.com/iVFT1kAVDa

A new tactic being used by #Hamas #terrorists in #Gaza against #IDF #soldiers.
They are firing incendiary arrows as well as attempting to shoot them with very sharpened points.
Who knows what they may come up with next. #evil #Palestinians #terrorism #Israel #Israeli pic.twitter.com/OXCkwR3OP8

The Anger of Israelis Today
I’m baffled by my government. Violent riots and breaches in the fence by Gaza daily. Exploding balloons land in cities across Israel to kill our children and deliberately set fires destroy farmland, forest, animal life and income. And we do nothing??

Interesting Development
#Hamas warned #Egypt that it also must open its borders with #Gaza or “demonstrators” will attack the southern border – even at the cost of “thousands of dead.” Unlike #Israel, Egypt will show no restraint & will oblige, especially since they know Hamas = hated Muslim Brotherhood
