ISIS can't stop this wedding - again rockets were fired to Israel

Hello readers,
Attacks against Israel continue even though its been almost a year since the end of operation "Protective Edge". In less than 2 weeks there were 2 times rockets were launched from Gaza to Israel by a terror organization affiliated with ISIS.
One happened on the evening of May 26th and the other one happened last night June 3rd (around 23:00).
Hamas who reign Gaza now is responsible for any assault, terror attack or rockets from Gaza. As they want to keep the ceasefire they need to thwart any attemps of assaults against Israel. Yet apparently they fail. According to the media the ISIS affiliated organization want to overthrow Hamas and take control themselves. So they have their own inside fighting. So apparently shooting rockets at Israel is their way of taking revenge on Hamas probably hoping to start another escalation and military conflict.

Its funny how people from the outside don't really get it. Israel suffers from different kinds of attacks for different idiotic reasons. It can be part of the regular attempts to destroy Israel and killing all the Jews and Israelis, it can be part of the political system of the palestinians and other terror groups like punishing each other by trying to provoke Israel for a response and sometimes its just an attempt to get everyone together against another enemy to stop their own inside battles. Israelis ofcourse don't really care whats the reason behind it. Every attack, every rocket has the intention of murder behind it,
People run to shelters if they have near by or trying to take cover. You need also to take care of the children and the elderly and help them. You don't know if the situation is going to escalate again.
You don't know if to go to work, or school or send your own children to school. Everytime you know someone tried to kill you and your family, everytime has effect on your mental state it takes a toll and ofcourse it ruins the fabric of life. 

Think how crazy it is. Lets say you are walking down the street and someone shoots you (with the hopes of killing you) but he is doing it so that your family will come to retaliate against his enemies.
What is this? A lame mafia movie?

The Wedding
Last night a friend of mine from school got married (Mazal Tov again :)).
I went there with other friends from school we came to celebrate and to cheer up the bride and the groom. As I mentioned earlier that night rockets were fired to Israel and fell not that far away from where we were. Rockets have already ruined hundreds (if not thousands) weddings and parties in Israel in the past. People were panicked and worried obviously. You know brides worries and nightmares before weddings? Well this is one of the worst nightmares you could imagine becoming true. But thankfully most people stayed to celebrate this holy union and I want to give thumbs up to all my buddies for not only staying and chilling but that we partied even harder that wedding like theres nothing outside of the hall.I also want to thank everyone who messeged me that evening to check up with me I am alright. Again Mazal Tov to the happy couple we love you and with you the best and we enjoyed celebrating with you.

ISIS you couldn't stop this wedding, you can't stop our party. So try your luck with Hamas or the coalition.
