How many rockets were fired from Gaza into Israel in Sep-0ct 2008?

Update:

I am a lillte confused. The table on Wikipedia list 2 rockets fired over this two month period but the text indicates four.

Where there 1 or 2 rockets fired each month over this period?

    All of this brutality; all of this violence; all of these atrocities; have been committed by ISRAEL. In addition, they did it with OUR AMERICAN WEAPONS AND OUR TAX MONEY!

    All those military rifles: American made M-16's

    All the helicopter gun ships: American Apaches & Cobras

    All the fighter jets: American F-15's and F-16's

    Between outright "aid", military assistance, and loan guarantees, we American taxpayers give Israel between $3 and $6 Billion every year. They use our "aid" to wage this warfare on Arabs.

    Is there any wonder why the Arabs fight back? Is there any wonder why Arabs have begun attacking the US itself?

    If YOUR family had been brutalized in these ways, would YOU fight back? By fighting back, would YOU be called a "terrorist?"

    I'm not sure in specific that month, but I know for a fact that during the ceasefire ranging from Jun 19th to November 4th, Hamas has shot 65 rockets. Of course, without Israel reacting.

    Edit: Okay, found it.

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_rocket_and_mo...

    Note the 2 pictures on the right.

    Edit no. 2: Okay, I've looked into it. The text writes that 4 rockets and 2 mortars were shot during Sep-Oct period. The tables show 3 rockets and 3 mortars. I'm assuming one of the reports mistakened a mortar for a rocket. In the bottom line - both according to the text and the graphs - Exactly 6 projectile weapons were shot from Gaza in Sep-Oct.

    I am un sure - but ONE would have been too many. I fear that modern news commentators would find it totally irrelevant no matter how many were fired. Hamas are flavour of the month and I hate to say it but it looks like the media are too afraid to upset the Muslims. How many have been butchered in Darfur? Black pagan Africans have no pull so who cares. Time these petty excuses of humanity grew up, got into the modern world and ended their barbarism
