If I'm not mistaken the BBC's "I cried for Arafat, Barbra Plett, has left the Middle East. Maybe that accounts for this graphic account of Paelstinians indiscriminate firing of rockets into Israel which kill many children. This is indeed a rare report by the BBC on Palestinian terrorists.
It is supposed to warn the local people of a Qassam rocket attack by Palestinian militants.
If the system works, they have nine seconds to run for cover.
But sometimes there is nowhere to run.
In a kindergarten in the middle of Sderot, the mere mention of Red Dawn makes one little girl burst into tears.
This kindergarten has lost two children - on their way here in the morning - to rocket attacks in the past few years.
Unlike some kindergartens in the town, this one at least has a reinforced concrete roof and blast-proof windows.
If the children are outside and the siren goes, everyone sprints for the door.
The children reach it first.
Read the whole thing.
It's about time the BBC started reporting the other half of the story.
