Gaza militants signal ready to halt fire | |||
2011-03-27 | |||
GAZOO - Gaza militant groups signalled on Saturday they would halt rocket fire at Israel if the Jewish state stopped shootings as well, after a surge in cross-border violence prompted fears of a possible escalation into war. Hamas spokesman Ismail Rudwan said militant leaders were "committed as long as the occupation (Israel) was committed" to abide by an earlier de facto truce, after a round of talks in Gaza that followed a weeklong surge in attacks. Israeli raids in Gaza have killed five militants and four civilians this week, a declared response to militants firing more than 70 rockets at the Jewish state, wrecking a house on Saturday, and raising alarm through much of southern Israel. Gaza militants for their part insist that their rocket and mortar shootings are in response to Israeli air raids in the coastal territory largely sealed off by the Jewish state. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has threatened a lengthy "exchange of blows" if the violence goes on.
Russo charged that Israel felt Hamas was losing its grip over other Gaza militants. "There is anarchy," he said. Asked by reporters whether he thought the situation could escalate into another war, Russo replied: "We are prepared for any possibility, the goal is we won't in the end permit a situation where it is impossible for civilians to live here."

#1 Let me see if I can get this right. The Palestinians fire a rocket they cant guide effectively because its made largely with ju-ju and camel piss (PBUH) out of Moslem technology in Arafat's pay toilet. BUT they fire it at Jewish civilians with their best wishes and then they run and plead that they are just victims and have a pefect "right" to defend themselves again nasty Yids who have very effective artillery and computers and fighter Jets with GPS bombs. (makes sense to me, how about you?) But its a war CRIME if Israel targets some Palestinian Hamas kitchen through the window on the left (because they CAN)...and the "innocent civilians" are all Hamas eating goats eyes and looking at maps while they chew and swallow. Right? The Palestinians arent the sharpest tools around. They never heard of Darwin. Would it really surprise you if the Israelis kept the Settlements coming until the West Bank was one big Yiddish market? Would it surprise you if there came a day in the future when the only Palestinians left were homesteading in the Amazon Basin? Would it surprise you if a generation from now there were a dusty old book back in the reference stacks which mentioned the Palestinians in a footnote for Israeli Mall construction in Damascus? Its all gonna end someday, and Arafat's Tomb will be paved under a parking lot for the Zion Vets Assoc. And Golgotha will be a Bus station Cafeteria where the German and American tourists can get a Coke and a ham and bratwurst sandwich. |
