13,000 Palestinian security forces maintain cease-fire

Article


Hamas' militant wing and the Islamic Jihad militant group claimed responsibility for firing several rockets into Israel after the cease-fire took effect at 6 a.m. (11 p.m. ET Sunday).


Welcome to the standard Islamic Cease fire. The Israeli's stop firing and retreat. The Terrorists keep on firing and killing Israeli's.

I give it a week at most before the Israeli's get tired of being "peacefully" shot at , go back in , and the Hamas blame them for violating the so called cease fire (in which they failed to ...cease firing ... oddly enough).

But ... this is a new thing.
Oh it's happened many times before , with the terrorists continuing to provoke isreal and another war starting, that part is old hat.

The new part is that I was watching CNN on the telly, and they actually bothered to mention that the Hamas was still shooting at the Israeli's. Instead of the usual white wash of it all being the fault of the Jews and the poor innocent palistinians are so picked upon , they're actually giving it something akin to balanced coverage.

That will not change the Islamic actions or attitudes a witt, but it does mean the west will react differently to this kind of nonsense from now on. It will be interesting to see what happens next , since in this post 9/11 era tolerance for islamic extremism seems to have gone down hill.
