They Don't Even Get an A for Effort
The Palestinians are really proud of themselves:
The Palestinian Authority capped a largely disastrous first month of rule in the Gaza Strip with an announcement late Saturday night that it prevented 17 terrorist attacks and confiscated a significant amount of weapons...
The PA Interior Ministry, which controls the various Palestinian security branches, issued the security report, highlighting the confiscation of 75 mines and 15 Kassam rockets, which it said were to be used against Israel. PA security forces around the border town of Rafah also blocked up two smuggling tunnels and prevented seven smuggling attempts from the Egyptian side.
A whopping fifteen rockets. No seriously, that's great - that's a whole two-thirds less than the number that were fired in a four day period at Israel last month. So yes, it's fantastic that the Palestinian authority has taken those fifteen rockets off the Palestinian street. But we're not exactly talking about Stalingrad here.
