(Before It's News)

Hamas just does not seem to want peace, on any level

Israel has conditionally agreed to extend a ceasefire that ended the month-long self-defense operation in Gaza, an Israeli official stated on condition of anonymity. Reuters reports Wednesday night that the official did not give details about the extension, only that it had been agreed upon.

Hamas says they will not accept a ceasefire and that the war will restart on Friday

“Israel has expressed its readiness to extend the truce under its current terms,” the official merely stated, referring to the 72-hour “humanitarianceasefire” brokered by Egypt overnight Monday/Tuesday. The ceasefiretook effect at 8:00 am Tuesday and was accepted by both Israel and Hamas; it is due to expire Friday.

Israel has yet to officially confirm its extension of the ceasefire agreement. 

In the meantime, Hamas has rejected the idea of an extension entirely. “Israel and Hamas will resume fighting immediately at the end of the 72-hour ceasefire, at 8:00 am Friday,” a Hamas spokesperson stated Wednesday night.

Earlier Wednesday, the IDF announced a limited pullout of the Gaza border area, leaving 55,000 soldiers near the fence and discharging some 30,000 reservists. IDF forces already officially left Gaza itself earlier this week.

On Wednesday night, Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu stressed in an international press conference that the IDF stands at the ready in the event the current ceasefire is violated, however.

“We closely monitor the implementation of the ceasefire on the ground, and we are holding position in the event it is violated,” he stated. “The army is in the field, with reinforcements, to meet any scenario.”

Thirty days have passed since Operation Protective Edge was launched on July 8. Sixty-four IDF soldiers and three civilians were killed since the fighting began, and Hamas fired more than 3,500 rockets on Israel.

  • This response was posted in another article, laying war crimes on the Israelis. I’d thought to post it again here, as the video is quite succinct of the problem, one well worth watching, and I’ve always been strongly mystified about what moral grounds anybody can stand on, that would perpetrate worse crimes on their enemies. For instance, what could be wrong with terrorism, in a terrorist’s eyes? If it’s normal behavior for you, why not normal for others, against you? On what grounds could you complain?

    That post,

    Muslim rockets indiscriminately rained on civilians, suicide bombers and glorification of suicide bombers, aka homicide bombers, a policy to exterminate all Jews: none such are war crimes, by very definition? And an entire agenda that would make Hitler proud, so what else is new?

    “Israel’s Channel 10 has reported that dozens of Palestinians emerged from the devastated Gaza neighborhood of Shajaiya to protest against the war, and that Hamas rounded twenty of them up and shot them in the street.

    The report, delivered during a panel discussion, was based in turn on reports by Palestinian sources, translated by Channel 10′s analyst. The demonstrators reportedly blamed Hamas for the destruction of the neighborhood, and Hamas’s response was to kill them all immediately. Asked how the demonstration could have come about in the first place, the analyst speculated that there could be other pockets of resistance that would emerge.

    Hamas has to be removed from the equation in order for peace talks to be a viable alternative, and so that the people of Gaza can have hope for a future.”

    Also, regarding peace, the simple facts as to the entire problem,

    Israel is not committing a genocide. Apparently some Nazi sorts of people don’t know the definition of the word. On the other hand, a policy to “push Israel into the sea” and to “kill every last Jew” is genocide.

    But here’s what I wonder: if the Muslims are alright with this policy of genocide, why are they complaining? On what moral grounds? Why would it not be fair, by their own standards, that Israel wipe them out first? Is a boxer going to get into the ring, then whine if he gets walloped? What’s this stupid notion only fanatical, provocative and criminal Muslims can perpetrate murder and mayhem? Their opponents must just lay down and die, or they’ll get apoplectic in the streets and demolish tombstones in graveyards? Yes, all over the world, Muslims are crying like babies, but for getting some of their own? Can anybody spell h-y-p-o-c-r-i-s-y?

    I’m very sorry to inform this apparent body of millions of dummies, but, if you get violent, it takes very little imagination you may expect violence back.

  • Pigs will fly out of my ass BEFORE I EVER TRUST AN ISRAELI JEW AGAIN!!! :mad:
