Forecast for Southern Israel: More Rain
June 27th, 2008 Cease-Fire, Gaza, Hamas, Israel

Qassam attackMortars continue to rain down on the areas surrounding Gaza still, in blatant violation of the cease-fire that Hamas pushed so hard for.  Why these morons wash their hands of these violations, if they are truly serious, is beyond me.  Jihad Islami on Tuesday, Fatah on Thursday, G-d knows who today.

Yes, they admonished the truce-breakers the other day, but have they done anything to stop it?  Not only are they the elected goverment, of Gaza, but they are supposedly the supreme power there that no one dare cross.  Hell, I thought they deposed Fatah just a year ago, and quite easily if I recall.  Of course this leads to 2 conclusions:

1) They either aren’t as all powerful as they or anyone else thinks, or

2) This is being dont with their tacit approval.

Either way, and panderer or not, Livni is right.  The more Israel ignores these violations, the more they will be tested by more Qassams and mortars in this alleged ‘period of calm’.  If Israeli Hellfire missiles were being launched into ‘open areas’ now, you can be sure Hamas would call an end to this “cease-fire”.  The sealing of the crossings is a good start, despite the whining from Gaza.  More needs to be done, and if Hamas wont do the job, Israel will do it for them while the world simply watches.

And I thought it was going to be a nice Friday.
