"This weekend, as Israelis were marking the holy Sabbath, thousands of families across southern Israel had to spend this day running in and out of bomb shelters.
In the space of 24 hours, starting Friday evening, Hamas terrorists in Gaza rained down a barrage of over 200 rockets and mortars on communities in southern Israel, representing the single heaviest day of rocket fire since the end of Operation Protective Edge in 2014.
One of these rockets hit a children's play area in Sderot, while another hit a Synagogue. Thankfully both were empty at the time.
Although a number of Israelis were injured in this assault, the only reason there were not more casualties is because whereas Hamas invests millions of dollars it receives in foreign aid for tunnels and rockets, Israel invests money in fortified bomb shelters and 'Red Alert' advanced warning systems...
This weekend's rocket barrage of course also follows the recent wave of Hamas-led incendiary kite terror, which has scorched over 7,500 acres of precious land across Israel and ongoing attempts to infiltrate Israel. Yet that too has largely been met with callous indifference by the international community.
Where is the outrage from the United Nations, where the General Assembly and Human Rights Council only few weeks ago held an 'Special Emergency Session' to overwhelmingly condemn Israel for 'excessive force' for defending itself from the unprecedented violence emanating from Gaza, yet gave Hamas a free pass?
Again, largely silence, with the exception of the UN Special Coordinator for the Middle East Peace Process, who called on 'everyone' in Gaza to 'step back from the brink.'
There is a simple way to move back from the brink: Hamas need only cease the rocket fire, incendiary kites that have now scorched over 7,500 acres of land, and the attack tunnels.
The fact of the matter is, mass terror attacks like this do not occur in a vacuum. They are the direct outcome of continued one-sided resolutions that single out and condemn only Israel, yet wholly ignore Hamas and Palestinian terror..."
