Ashkelon man builds homemade missile
Ashkelon resident Moshe Nissimpor decided that the best way to halt rocket fire from Gaza - in light of what he terms the government's failure to do so - is some vigilante justice.

Nissimpor developed a homemade 200-millimeter ballistic missile which he planned to launch from Ashkelon into the Gaza Strip.

"From this day onwards, we will push back to the stone age every place which dares shoot missiles into Israel's sovereign territory," he said Wednesday. "It is time the world understood Israelis' lives are not expendable."

"I'm afraid this is the only language the Palestinians understand, and this is the language in which we'll speak to them. I have many Gazan Palestinian friends who live as Hamas hostages. Once we bring an end to the rocket fire, Gaza's residents will also live in peace," he said.

1. This guy has "many Gazan friends?" Is that how he knows "it's the only language Palestinians
understand?"

That's pretty funny!

2. I guess 120 Gazans dead in 3 days wasn't enough for him
It's amazing how the same rhetoric is used by both sides

7. BTA, do you realize my postng that was a copy/paste of one of Vega's posts?
The whole "It's easy to understand... Don't do this and this and that and there will be no response" - I copy/pasted that from a comment Vegasaurus stated, to reflect that type of response back and then gauge how it would be received.

9. What that hateful moron doesn't seem to comprehend...
Is that the people he's threatening to fire a rocket at are civilians, which makes him just as bad as anyone who fires rockets at Israeli civilians...

6. are Palestinian lives expendable ?
"It is time the world understood Israelis' lives are not expendable."

do Palestinians have a right to exist ?

do Palestinians have a right to defend themselves ?
