20. 41 combined rockets/mortars (your numbers are off)
Edited on Fri Jan-09-09 06:40 PM by shira
fired before Nov 4. along with the tunnel that preceded Israel's action, does not constitute a ceasefire by any stretch of the imagination.

It was, however, relatively quiet in Sept-Oct (only 4 attacks) so Hamas did keep it for 2 months if you give them that. For 2008, before the current war, the count is over 1000. No other country would sit back and take that.

And yes, barely any casualties - due to Israel's great efforts with bunkers, etc.. to protect their citizens. Maybe Israel shouldn't be so careful so the body count numbers can be more "fair".
