12,000 rockets -7.7.24

“I didn’t know there were still rockets falling on Israel,” an old friend from far away told me a few weeks ago.  It’s been hard for me to forget his words.   I felt like an idiot having to assert something so obvious to someone I think is usually very knowledgable.  I did stutter something about the facts that there are rockets falling all the time.  I didn’t say that Ezi has an app on his watch that buzzes when there’s an attack on Israel – and it buzzes a lot.  Today on the news someone tallied 12, 000 rockets since October 7, 2023, and said, “that’s all?” 

That’s more than 120 rockets a month. 

And nobody seems to know.
