Hamas militants reject truce offer to Israel
2006-06-17
Hamas militants distanced themselves on Friday from a ceasefire offer that the Palestinian government led by the Islamist group made to Israel, while other armed groups also spurned the proposal.
Ummm... Hamas is distancing itself from an offer Hamas made? I'll betcha Hamas is really mad at... ummm... Hamas.
... mayhaps the bodyguards had a few words with the bigs ...
No worries, they can always blame the Jooos! Palace politix can be a bit murky, especially when you can't remember if you're s'posed to be the political wing, the armed wing, or the breakaway faction on any given day...
Differences over the truce offer, which was conditional on Israel stopping raids and air strikes in Gaza and the West Bank, could point to disagreement between the Hamas grassroots and the government over tactics. Hamas's armed wing scrapped a 16-month truce with Israel a week ago and soon after launched a barrage of makeshift rockets at the Jewish state from the Gaza Strip. But a government spokesman made a new ceasefire offer on Thursday.
After Israel gently pointed out they know where Haniyeh lives...For Now.
"We are not interested in making any offers or proposals," said Sami Abu Zuhri, official spokesman for the Hamas movement.
"But please turn off that little red dot on my forehead!"

#8  I just discovered the sink trap!

Hey, Dipweed Justice: Some people need lessons in math, some need lessons in risk management, logic, consequences, the difference between the ideal (which we both agree on, probably) and the practical, and some need to be able to look through other people's eyes and understand what motivates them (even if it is evil).

#6  For those who read my apparently pointless ravings afterward, my comment above was directed at the unnecessarily rude post of JUSTICE. His comment was subsequently trolled by the moderators, to whom I am, as always, grateful.

#5  Troll alert. "All rights reserved," indeed. Who would want to be linked to such stupid, posturing, uncreative drivel? It's one thing to be suspected of having an IQ well below the species average; it is quite another to demonstrate it conclusively.

#3  Seems as though the government is trying to show how separate it is from the guys with the guns. "See, world? My left hand has absolutely no control over my right! You can't blame the left hand for what the right hand is doing, now can you? All right, it makes sense to us. And the French."

Go ahead, Hamas. Pi$$ Israel off. I've always wondered what a fight between a rabbit and a doberman would look like.

#2  LOL!

"Marklar, these marklars want to change your marklar. They don't want this Marklar or any of his marklars to live here because it's bad for their marklar. They use Marklar and Marklar to try and force marklars to believe their marklar. If you let them stay here, they will build marklars and marklars. They will take all your marklars and replace them with their Marklar. These marklars have no good marklar to live on Marklar, so they must come here to Marklar. Please, let these marklars stay where they can grow and prosper without any marklars, marklars, or marklars."

#1  Just replace all the word 'Hamas' as well as all verbs and nouns with the word 'Marklar'. It'll make a lot more sense.
