Gaza in Bible Prophecy

Israel has been bombarded by thousands of Qassam missiles from Gaza, the first being fired in 2001. However, since the Israeli communities of Gaza were destroyed and the Jews forcibly removed in 2005, the missile fire has become much worse. Even though the media have called these missiles "homemade", "cheap", "inaccurate", "rudimentary", ineffective" and "thrown together"; they are deadly, destroy homes, kill people and make life a living hell for those living in towns such as Sderot which are near Gaza. It is not true to call them "homemade", they have been in development since 2001 by the terror group Hamas and many improvements have been made. The Israeli army has in fact targeted "production factories", this is where they are manufactured. They are inaccurate, this does not matter to Hamas, however, the purpose of these missiles is to fire them indiscriminately at Israeli civilian areas. Their goal is to terrorize the Israelis, and to this end they have been successful. The Israeli Center for Victims of Terror and War found that 28 percent of adults and 30 percent of children in Sderot have post-traumatic stress disorder. The media has featured little coverage of these missile attacks and has minimized their effects. Hamas is now also firing more advanced missiles, made in China and Iran and smuggled in over the border with Egypt. It is for this reason that Israel has gone to war against Gaza.
