"Backed by a barrage of rockets, dozens of Hamas militants broke out of the blockaded Gaza Strip and into nearby Israeli towns, killing dozens and abducting others in an unprecedented surprise early morning attack during a major Jewish holiday Saturday."The images and videos coming out of Israel are horrific. Civilians gunned down in their homes, in their cars, and on the streets. I saw one video of several elderly people shot dead at a bus stop.
