For anyone that still thinks Hamas isn't targeting civilians, here's today update from my friend, Yael:

"Today Tal [her husband] started his new job. At 07:15 we dropped him off at the train station, and then I took the kids straight to daycare. Where I came to realize What A Good Thing it is that they are in a bomb shelter. Just as I had given my parting kisses and headed for the door, the sirens went off. In a matter of seconds, the whole fucking neighborhood was crammed into my kids daycare center, which also doubles as the neighborhood shelter.

I sat down on the floor next to Neta [her daughter] and a friend of hers, and sang a song with them, and then came the booms. Boom. Boom. BOOM. That last one was so fucking close that the cast iron doors covering the cast concrete windows shuddered and groaned. As I realized how close it must have been, the first thought that went through my head was “oh fuck, the train station”. My guts turned simultaneously to stone and mush and everything in between as I hoped that Tal was not on the train yet. Because the bombs fell just about when the train was supposed to be entering the station. It took me a minute until I located a phone and called him. All he had to say about it is that he was going to be really late for work.

We waited the mandatory five, and then I said goodbye again, and went on with my day. Treated myself to breakfast at a cafe, then ran some errands, then came back home. There were a few minor injuries reported and that was it. So far, Beer Sheva has been very fortunate. For the fourth largest city in Israel (albeit just about 250K people, no more), you would expect a lot more of the bombs that fell here to hit places with people in them. I don’t know who it is looking out for us, but thank you.

Well, on with life, I guess."


LUCK has kept the CIVILIANS of Be'er Sheeva mostly safe so far, not the fucking kindness of Hamas.
