Rockets Fall But Where’s the Coverage?

“If a tree falls in a forest and no one is around to hear it, does it make a sound?”
This philosophical question could well be applied to the media’s treatment, or lack of, concerning the latest barrage of rockets to be launched from Gaza at Israeli population centers.
- Three Grad rockets exploded in southern Israel Saturday night and early Sunday morning, prompting Beersheba and Ashdod mayors to shut down the local school systems on Sunday.

- A Netivot home sustained extensive damage but, remarkably, a resident, alone at home at the time of the hit, was left unhurt.

Yes you get the same treatment from the press when Israel kills children and i note from your post that no one got killed this time by these rockets.
Most of the rockets fired are little more than home made fireworks and the IDF have been known to fire these rockets themselves.
For every jewish death you get ten muslims dead and lets not forget that most of the media is owned and controlled by jewish companies but maybe they know that people in the west no longer listen to a word the MSM says anymore.
Israel is the biggest threat to world peace and still they are allowed to steel more land without the puppets at the UN doing a dam thing
