Hamas Ends Cease-Fire With Israel

by JASmius

....by virtue of never accepting it in the first place.



I'm not remotely interested in what Hamastanis have to say about this.  They made their bed when they "elected" these rocket-happy lunatics.  What strikes my attention is how ABCCCP typically tilted their thumbnail report towards Hamas and against Israel, as though it's Israel's obligation to simply endure daily rocket and missile attacks on their civilian population centers as the "price of living" and should be apologetic about having anti-missile defenses Hamas lacks.  Even a token attempt to get a brief statement from somebody in the Israeli government would have been appreciated.  Surely ABCCCP could have spared an additional thirty seconds in their "news"cast.

I stick by what I said on Monday.  By themselves, Hamas's actions make no strategic sense, even for people with an avowed death wish.  This has got to be part of something bigger.
