Palestinians Find Time To Fire Rockets At Israeli Schoolhouses and Hospitals

Honestly, don't these people have anything better to do:

Palestinian gunmen launched two Qassam rockets Sunday evening towards Israel. One rocket was fired at Sderot, and the other at Ashkelon. No injuries were reported in the strikes. Islamic Jihad's military wing, the al-Quds Brigades, claimed responsibility for the fire. A spokesman for the organization said that the attacks were aimed as a response "to Israel's crimes," adding that all efforts should be concentrated against the Israeli enemy.

Obviously, Israel can't retaliate right now because the entire world would come down on it for "making the already tense situation between Fatah and Hamas worse". Which essentially means that as long as some Palestinians are busy kidnapping each other, other Palestinians get a green light to try to kill as many Israelis as they possibly can. And therein lies the beauty of international diplomacy: no matter what's going on or who's causing it, there will always be a way that Israel gets screwed.

Palestinian non-civil war? Green light to attack Israel.
Iranian nuclearization? Let's talk about Dimona.
Sunni-Shia conflict in Iraq? Maybe it'll go away if the US pressures Israel.

Because that makes sense. All countries are treated like that, right?.
