These aren't toys from the hobby store

Chris has a useful post explaining the rockets Hezbollah is using to attack Israel. These rockets are now hitting Israel's third largest city, Haifa.
Haifa, the third-largest city in Israel, is the deepest target inside the country ever hit by Hezbollah. It is home to Israel's largest passenger ship port, oil refineries and several key industrial installations.

It is 25 miles from the Lebanese border to the north. Hezbollah now has rockets that could go about 40 miles, Israeli army chief of staff Lt. Gen. Dan Halutz said.
