Hamas celibrated the liberization of Gaza from their Zionist enemy Israel, families brought their children to the family event of Hamas handing out flags to wave and shooting guns in the air. A truck exploded and the explosion ran through the crowd. Evidently their exploses were mishandled and they winded up causing causalities to the children at the rally and 15 people died. Afterwards Hamas blamed Israel's military for a strike upon them and proceeded to violate the peace by bombarding Isreali towns with a salvo of 40 rockets.

Israel responds by deploying its Army to the Northern border of Gaza and set up artiliary and executed a military exercise by targetting an empty field in Gaza. No damange to buildings or people done. This was a message being sent to Hamas and the Palistians, we can also indiscriminately fire at your towns and bombard you, so far Israel has restrained from this resopnse but her tollerance to futher escalations grows thin. They dropped off flyers telling the people that Hamas was the ones who screwed up and blew up the truck during the rally and instead of taking responsibility for this, they violated the truce. They also closed up the border so the Palistian Laborers could not enter Israel.

Abbas said Sunday that he asked U.S. officials to pressure Israel to pull back from its offensive. "We're back to square one. Now we need time to regain calm. Our people need a quiet life and to make a living," he said.

What about Israel's right to a quiet life and peace? What about Israelis right to exist without being fired upon. Not that no where in this article did they state what occured in the Israeli towns. Note they did not talk about the panic the people felt as the sirens were blaring that they were under attack by Hamas. Note they glaze over the three violations of the truce by Jihad, the violations of Homocide murders.

Now Israel once again shown restraint by NOT reoccupying Gaza. They now take Hamas at its word (like the word of a terrorist Organization has any meaning), stating they will stop the violence and stop breaking the truce. I take Hamas at its face value stating they will not attack from Gaza. Which frees up their operations in the West Bank. I also take Jihad's words very seriously stating that the will no longer talk of truce it is war. It's been war for all these years. I know not to trust these groups, or this peace. It is just abiding time before they rearm themselves to attack again.

naw as long as it's terrorist doing the killing, that's ok with the U N but if israelies do it, it becomes an act of war, an atrocity, the killing of "innocent" palistinians become a cause for the liberal left to espouse.

Makes me PUKE!
