Yom Shabbat

As regular readers of OneIsrael know, your humble servant does not post a blog on Shabbat unless circumstances warrant.
Palestinian terrorists in Gaza have fire 4 missiles into southern Israel since yesterday afternoon:
At 5:23 pm Friday, a missile exploded in an “open area.”
The IDF did not respond.
At 9:06 pm last night (Friday), 2 missiles were fired that exploded near Sha’ar Hanegev.
The IDF did not respond.
At 2:44 am this morning another missile was launched into Israel from Gaza which exploded in an open space.
The IDF did not respond.
It was announced a few hours ago that our weak-kneed government’s response to these 4 missiles will be to close the Erez Crossing for at least 1 day.
The Kerem Shalom Crossing (through which most “goods” enter the Palestinian state) will remain open.
Unbelievable.
A student from Malawi, who had worked with an Israeli health volunteer in his country battling AIDS, came up to us as we walked down the street in the UC-Davis Picnic Day Parade and wanted to carry the Israeli flag.
