In Reply to: Myst... a timeline of rocket attacks against Israel prior to the Israeli offensive posted by Beseder on July 27, 2006 at 11:03 am:

My post was to state that there have in fact been no rocket attacks between the withdrawal and the current events in Lebanon. Obviously that was intended in the background of the Lebanese conflict and Hezbollah, and not the Palestinians.

Of course we are all well aware of the Palestinian Qassam rocket attacks from Gaza but you can hardly justify attacks on Lebanese territory on the basis of rocket attacks from the Palestinian territories. There were also two rocket attacks from Palestinian groups near the northern border, one from the PFLP and another from a group claiming to be affiliated with al-Qaeda.

Hezbollah also fired anti-air missiles at Israeli air incursions, but did not fire rockets at any of those times.

I still maintain the correction. m
