UPDATES 9 am Israel time, Tuesday, August 13 2013:
*Eilat was attacked by at least 3 rockets fired from the Sinai early this morning. One was intercepted by the Iron Dome battery stationed there, but explosions were heard around the city. MADA reports that three Eilat residents have been treated for shock. A Salafist group has claimed responsibility.
At the same time, an Egyptian Army position in El-Arish has also come under missile attack this morning with terrorists firing multiple rockets. No injuries have been reported. Yesterday, Egyptian forces reportedly killed a senior Al-Qaeda commander in the Sinai.
*One month from now, on September 14–Yom Kippur–the Israeli Davis Cup tennis team was scheduled by the Davis Cup sponsoring organization, the International Tennis Federation (ITF), to play the Belgian national team in Antwerp, Belgium. When our Israelis learned that they had been scheduled for Yom Kippur they requested that the Belgians postpone the match for one day.
The Belgians refused.
Yesterday, the ITF intervened and ordered the Belgians to move the match to September 15–but at the same time fined the Israel Tennis Association $13,000 for the “inconvenience” caused to the Belgians.
*The revelations continue from Shimon Peres’ refusal to play the Israeli national anthem Hatikvah before the Barcelona football exhibition in Bloomfield Stadium in Tel Aviv last week.
It turns out that what Peres objected to as “offensive” to Palestinian sensibilities were references to “the Jewish spirit” and “Zion”.
And this man is the President of Israel?
TODAY’S BLOG:
A protest against the prisoner release in Jerusalem last week. The “red hands” indicate that each of the terrorists being released has “blood on his hands”. The picture is of an Israeli who was murdered (picture source: Ronen Zvulun/Reuters).
The news comes this morning that the 26 Palestinian terrorist murderers will be released tonight. The idea is to release them in the middle of the night so that the media will not be full of images of “victorious” Palestinian murderers.
Fat chance.
A few minutes ago, your humble servant was listening to a BBC report on the murderers’ release. The “reporter” was speaking by phone with the brother of one of the murderers (and the nephew of another). Nowhere in the report did the reporter mention that the two people in this person’s family were convicted of brutal murders of Israelis. Instead, her emphasis was on the fact that these poor Palestinians had been incarcerated for almost 30 years.
There will be demonstrations all over Israel today and tonight against Benjamin Netanyahu’s decision to release these terrorists. Your humble servant plans to be in one in Tel Aviv.
Today, israelstreet is republishing the list of the 26 murderers who are being released. Also, I am publishing another list with the telephone number of each of these terrorists. The numbers were disseminated by the PLO yesterday so that all of the Palestinians in Judea, Samaria, and Gaza can call each family with their good wishes on the release of their “heroic” family members.
I suggest instead that you call each family with the good wishes that their family member rot in hell for the murder that he committed.
