Just before the line which says 

iptables -A RH-Firewall-1-INPUT -j REJECT --reject-with icmp-host-prohibited

you insert one which says

iptables -A RH-Firewall-1-INPUT -j LOG

If you want to be a bit sophisticated about it:

iptables -A RH-Firewall-1-INPUT -j LOG --log-level=info --log-prefix="Reject:"

That way, the logs will go to /var/log/messages and will have "Reject:" in 
them so you can easily identify what they mean.
