Baby seriously wounded - Qassam hits house in southern Israel

Dr. Aaron Lerner 3 March 2006

Israel Radio reports that a seven month old baby was seriously wounded in
the head by a direct hit from a Qassam rocket at his home south of Ashkelon.
His father and another person were lightly to moderately wounded and all are
on the way to the hospital. Since then there have been two additional
rocket attacks.

It remains to be seen if seriously wounding a baby qualifies as a serious
enough attack to compel acting PM Olmert to take action. This will
depend, in part, on who the parents are (new immigrants vs. veteran
Israelis, ugly and inarticulate vs. photogenic & articulate, etc.).
