    The sad truth is that Hamas fired rockets into Israel shortly after a truce was declared. Hamas does not want peace – they want war. THEIR power and ability to stay in control is contingent upon a continued war.

    Why doesn’t international media talk about the thousands of rockets launched against innocent civilians in Israel? Is that not a violation of the Geneva convention? Is that not terrorism???

    A week-long opportunity to smuggle rockets and other munitions into Gaza. The Hamas does not care for its people other than that they die as “martyrs” as seen by the western press. Terrorists have one objective: terror and they believe that they are justified in killing and torture. They will not make deals with the enemy. But they will lie to them.
