It hasn't been a big story in Israeli media, but Hamas has been firing relatively primitive anti-aircraft missiles at Israeli aircraft that have been retaliating for rocket fire.

In Palestinian media, this has been a much bigger story - even though the missiles have not succeeded in causing any damage.

Palestinian media has noted and shown videos that Israeli aircraft have been releasing flares to confuse the heat-seeking missiles.



To the terrorists, Israel taking countermeasures to the shoulder-mounted missiles is itself a victory. 

While Hamas encourages clashes every Ramadan, this time it is possible that their Al Aqsa provocations have a dual purpose. One is to capture videos of Israeli forces using violence against "peaceful worshipers," but the other may be to have an excuse to fire rockets at Israel - rockets that Israel is sure to respond to with relatively minor airstrikes, allowing Hamas to show off their anti-aircraft weapons and look powerful to Palestinians and the Arab world.

I wouldn't be surprised if this isn't an Iranian initiative.
