Rockets are not missiles

On year 2000 I was defending Israel in an Internet open forum about the Middle East, and I said then: When missiles start falling on Israeli cities we will be alone, as always. Hizbullah and Hamas rockets are not missiles and we fortunately are more able to defend ourselves against missiles than from those terror rockets. The point is, and world has consensus in that, conventional missiles are not nuclear weapons nor dirty bombs. Only deep enemies of Israel and of Jewish people want to see Israel under attack of unconventional missiles as they are delighting to see us under rocket attacks today. Civilized world that saw - shocked - airplanes striking buildings should be well aware of that, because human beings – and not animals - shall be the ones here to prevail.
