Rockets From Gaza Draw Israeli Airstrikes -- New York Times

JERUSALEM — Seven rockets fired from the Gaza Strip landed in southern Israel on Monday morning, prompting Israeli airstrikes that hit at least one training site of Hamas, the militant Palestinian faction that rules Gaza.

The exchange of fire between Palestinian militants and Israeli forces was the most significant clash in more than a month, and came as Jews celebrated the last day of Passover. Combined with recent violence in the Old City of Jerusalem and in the West Bank, the exchange increased tensions as Washington was struggling to salvage peace talks before an approaching deadline on April 29.

Two Hamas security officers were slightly injured by one of the three airstrikes in the early afternoon, according to Gaza’s health ministry. No injuries were reported in Israel. One rocket damaged a road in the Israeli border town of Sderot, one of several communities where residents were warned to be on alert as they went about their holiday barbecues, hikes and prayers.

I dont hate jews. We muslims lived alongside jews peacefully for centurys so why not now? I have christians friend, athiest friends so i wouldnt mind a jewish one so please do not accuse me of hating jews. I find your claim offensive.

And p.s. Hating Israel has nothing to do with hating Jews. Im a muslim and i politically hate Saudi arabia (its leader) so does this mean i hate my own religion?
I'l leave the answer to you.
