Subject: RE: BS: Small hope for Israel/Palestine
As reported by the BBC this morning:

"The Palestinian militant organisation Hamas has rejected any extension of the three-day ceasefire in Gaza, which expired on Friday morning.

It said that Israel had failed to meet its demands. Key among these is the re-opening of Gaza Harbour to shipping.

Two rockets fired from Gaza hit southern Israel three hours before the three-day ceasefire was due to expire, the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) said.

The IDF accused "terrorists" of violating the ceasefire.

The rockets fell on open ground and caused no casualties, the Israeli army said early on Friday.

Hamas has denied firing them.

A Hamas military wing spokesman earlier called on Palestinian negotiators holding indirect talks with Israeli negotiators in Cairo to refuse any ceasefire extension unless its long-term demands were met.

The spokesman said his organisation was ready for "a long war".


At a rally held in Gaza yesterday support for Hamas amongst the population of Gaza was described by the Beeb as massive. Well Hamas has made the same decision that Arab and "Palestinian" leaders have made time and time again since 1947 - they have chosen war over peace - the Hamas spokesman says his organisation was ready for "a long war". I am sure he will get one as will the people of Gaza who are cheering these clowns on - so perhaps after 67 years it is time to finish it, the Arabs of Palestine do not want peace, they never have, so give them the war they crave and bay for in front of the medias cameras. It will not go well for them, exactly as the Leader of the Muslim Brotherhood in Kuwait, Tareq Al-Suwaidan stated to the people of Gaza on Al-Aqsa TV on August 1st 2014:

"You received the death you wanted. We have no problem with death. We are not like the children of Israel".
