No money for water, medicines or food but plenty for rockets

The BBC report that:

"The Palestinian militant group Hamas has test-fired a rocket capable of reaching Tel Aviv from Gaza, Israel's head of military intelligence has said.

Maj-Gen Amos Yadlin told a committee in parliament that the rocket was believed to be of Iranian origin and had been successfully fired out to sea.

There was no immediate comment by Hamas and it is not clear what evidence there is that the rocket came from Iran.

The new rocket has a range of about 60km (37 miles). "

In recent days the BBC have been full of how short of money Hamas is and how their people were short of drinking water and practically everything else because of the Israeli "blockade". No mention was made in those heart-rending reports of the closed Egyptian border, it seems that Israel is deemed to control that border as well as their own. In today's piece about the Hamas rocket no mention is made of the resource issue, which is odd because when the BBC talk about the scrapping Trident they are keen to inform us how many hospitals, schools etc. could be paid for.
