Talkback

The Qassam is really such a primitive weapon. It`s not the Qassam so much that Israelis object to. It`s the nerve of the militants to make any attack at all upon Israel. Israelis get quite as wound up over a child throwing a rock at a tank as they do a Qassam launch upon Ashkelon. In both cases, summary capital punishment is always the prefered outcome. Anyway, as I mentioned at the beginning, the Qassam is such a primitive weapon. I would not be surprised if there were some more effective weapon being fit up in Iran or Syria, or even Egypt for Palestinian use. Only speculation, I know, but remember, you heard it from me first!!
