Again, it bears repeating over and over and over, Obama has said he will work with the genocidal group, Hamas. Work with them on what exactly? They have one goal and one goal only, the annihilation of the Jewish people. So what is Obama going to be working on?

Thank Reagan for the Iron Dome. Remember how the left made fun of Reagan when he proposed the idea. What was the left called it? Star Wars. Remember that?

Nuclear jihad.

Hamas terrorists launched three powerful rockets at an Israeli nuclear power plant on Wednesday — a terrifying escalation of hostilities in the increasingly violent conflict.

But a nuclear disaster was averted when Israel’s vaunted Iron Dome defense system shot one of the rockets out of the sky and the other two missed their targets and detonated on the ground without causing any injuries.

Extremists from Hamas’ fanatical Qassam Brigades boasted that they had launched the long-range, M-75 rockets from the Gaza Strip to the Israeli city of Dimona hoping to damage or destroy the reactor, about 47 miles away.

But the Iron Dome — which has had a remarkable success rate of about 90 percent during the recent conflict — and the terrorists’ poor targeting prevented the reactor from being damaged.

The 13-inch (333-millimeter) M-75 rockets have a range of about 50 miles and can reach most of central Israel.

It was the first time that rockets have hit Dimona, one of Israel’s most sensitive areas because of the reactor’s location.

The rockets fired at the nuke plant were among 74 that rained down on cities across the country Wednesday, the Israeli military said.

Crying “God is great,” Palestinians in Gaza cheered as the rockets streaked overhead toward cities across Israel.

An angry Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said Israel would continue escalating attacks to stop the Hamas barrage and ordered the military to “take off the gloves” in what it is calling Operation Protective Edge.

“The army is ready for all possibilities,” Netanyahu said after holding a meeting of his security cabinet.

“Hamas will pay a heavy price for firing toward Israeli citizens. The security of Israel’s citizens comes first. The operation will expand and continue until the fire toward our towns stops and quiet returns.”

Hamas also fired a Syrian-made rocket into Hadera — about 78 miles from Gaza, marking the deepest penetration into the country’s interior yet.
