Another barrage of rockets hit the Haifa area on Sunday afternoon. Air raid sirens sounded immediately before the Katyushas hit. Nobody was wounded in the latest attack.As you can see, the only thing Iran seems interested in inventing and manufacturing are missles for attacking innocents. Another reason why they should be punished by being isolated from the rest of the world.
After a quiet night in Israel, at least three waves of Katyusha rockets hit the Haifa bay area, including serveral hits on populated areas. MDA reports indicate that there are at least eight deaths and more than 30 injuries.
Most of the fatalities were in a garage of Israel Railaways located near an Israel Electric Corporation installation on Haifa Bay, according to the Magen David Adom director general.
Two salvos of several rockets hit Ahuza, a central residential and business district of Haifa, Haaretz reported. Rockets also landed in the city of Acre and in Nahariya. A rocket also landed in the town of Kiryat Haim located north of Haifa, Channel 2 TV reported.
Channel 10 TV reported rockets hitting the Checkpost business district on the Haifa-Nahyaria highway.
At least four of the missiles that hit the northern Israeli city of Haifa on Sunday were Iranian-produced Fagr missiles, which carry a far larger warhead than those previously fired at Israel.

I have to admit Avi, I don't know an overwhelming amount about Israeli politics, but I wasn't too keen on Olmert winning. Too new to things. What are your thoughts on Netanyahu? I feel like he'd be coming across better as a statesman, he has the experience, etc. But like I say, I'm by NO means an expert. Just wondering what you think, and others who know about this realm of world politics.
Anyone else having trouble getting this site to load?
PG,
You're having trouble getting IBA to load?
Let me know what's happening. I'm having no trouble by the way.
Let me say that yes, he is good as a politician, but the problem is that even some on the right itself went so far as to undermine him. Namely, a party called National Union, whom I think are going to implode soon.
And Olmert? Well, I think he may end up being indicted soon for corruption charges. He's got a whole record of scams that he pulled in past years, and he deserves to be indicted already.
Wow, I wasn't aware of that, Avi.
I have to say, it seems to me Olmert is fighting a real war here, and we haven't seen much of that from any leader in quite a while.
