Gaza truce takes hold despite rocket fire
How, on God’s green Earth, can you have a cease fire ‘take hold’ along with rocket fire?? Because, you see, a ‘cease-fire’ for Islamist terrorists and their sympathizers, like the UN and al-Reuters, is when Israel stops defending herself. Oh, and who is it that fired the rockets? That would be Hamas, from their terrorist camp called “the Gaza strip.”
GAZA (Reuters) – A ceasefire between Israel and militants [sheesh] in Gaza took hold on Sunday and despite Palestinian rocket attacks in the first hours, Israel promised restraint.
Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert said the deal could help revive peacemaking [when are the Israelis going to dump this loser?] that collapsed six years ago before a Palestinian uprising began…
Militants launched at least nine rockets just hours after the start of the ceasefire at 6 a.m. (0400 GMT). But the army said it had not recorded any rocket fire since 10.15 a.m.
“We will show the necessary restraint and patience, certainly in the coming days,” Olmert said in southern Israel. The Israeli army pulled forces out of Gaza overnight and Palestinian witnesses confirmed the soldiers had gone.
Keep in mind, Gilad Shalit, the soldier who was kidnapped by Hamas thugs in June, is still missing. Yet, Israel now negotiates, pulls out of Gaza (again) and shows ‘restraint.’ Outrageous.
Why would terrorists want a cease-fire in the first place? To work on their statement recognizing the right of Israel to exist? To attend anger management classes? To draw up the fatwa declaring themselves the Great Satan? Or perhaps it’s to rest and re-arm. Gee, I wonder which it is…
As always, you offer clear, straight-talk (no pun intended, Tammy). But then, that’s why I keep visiting! Is the rest of the world so clueless — or willfully blind — that they refuse to see the longstanding double standard at work here? Yep, “Outrageous” is indeed the operative word.
I want Bebe back. Maybe Bushie will grant HIM “amnesty” so he can become a fast track citizen and then we’ll run him for our third party nominee—The Reality Party—in ’08.
Benjamin would make it aaaall better. Abortion, prayer in schools, and world peace.
Who’s with me?
Tammy … I love you. You make me proud to be a Tammycrat.
