ISRAEL, HAMAS AGREE GAZA HUMANITARIAN AID TRUCE


The Israeli army announced it would halt its bombardment of Gaza from 10:00 am to 3:00 pm (0700 to 1200 GMT) Thursday, following the UN request for a humanitarian truce.

Hamas later followed suit.

small steps, but in the right direction . .

I hope you also made them aware of his atrocious spelling, one would expect a standard bank team leader to be able to spell the word hero, what a POS.

std bank is a client of a friend who told me there was a little "trouble in paradise".
std bank themselves picked it up (maybe / probably some people also contacted them) damage control now (for my friend)

not sure what direction the "team leader's" career will take at lunchtime

“If you hide your ignorance, no one will hit you and you'll never learn.” Guess on the up side for mr team leader, opportunity to learn...- hoping some on here, also get a wake up call...

Hamas Breaks Ceasefire !!!!


My fellow Muslims and anyone else saying Israel is in the wrong: YOUR COMMENTS

LIVE UPDATES: Mortar shells fired from Gaza two hours into temporary truce


http://www.haaretz.com/news/diplomacy-defense/1.605590

A temporary humanitarian cease-fire between Israel and Hamas went into effect at 10 A.M. on Thursday and is scheduled to last until 3 P.M. Three rockets were fired at southern Israel just two hours after the cease-fire went into effect.

Hamas agreed to abide by the cease-fire and the IDF warned that Israel would retaliate against any attempt to violate it. The army has not responded to the noontime rocket fire.

The cease-fire was requested by Robert Serry, the United Nations special coordinator for the Middle East, in order to allow aid into the Gaza Strip.

The Israel Defense Forces struck 37 targets overnights in the Gaza Strip; the death toll in the coastal territory has reached 230. Hamas and the Islamic Jihad have fired more than 1,215 rockets and mortar shells into Israel since the hostilities began, reaching the length and breadth of the country. One Israeli has been killed, several wounded and millions of lives disrupted. Of the missiles fired, 38 have exploded in built-up spaces and 231 have been intercepted by the Iron Dome missile defense system.

1:19 P.M. Israeli President Shimon Peres tells BBC yesterday's killings of four Palestinian children on a beach in Gaza City were not intentional.

When questioned if Israel would apologize, Peres said "we are really sorry to see four children killed."

"I think the Air Force takes maximum care not to hit children," Peres continued.

"Pilots have orders not to [carry out strikes] if they see a single child."

Peres said there was a "great concentration of weapons" in the area where the air strike occured. "Unfortunately, [the Palestinians] did not take out the children, who did not have the slightest idea."

1:15 P.M. Israeli delegation leaves Cairo after talks with Egyptian officials on a proposed long-term truce for the Gaza Strip. "The delegation's short visit came in response to the Egyptian initiative [on a Gaza ceasefire] that includes holding talks in Cairo with top-level delegations from the Israeli government and the Palestinian factions to consolidate the proposed ceasefire and complete confidence-building measures," an Egyptian official said.

12:45 P.M. Egypt's foreign minister says its proposal for a cease-fire between Israel and the Palestinian militant group Hamas is gaining momentum, calling it the only viable way to stop an "intolerable humanitarian situation" in Gaza.

"The plan has been widely endorsed by the Arab League, it has been endorsed by the European Union... and it continues to gain momentum in terms of recognition," Sameh Shukri said Thursday in an interview with The Associated Press.

The plan, which includes easing access to Gaza, was accepted by Israel this week but rejected by Hamas, which said it had never been consulted, a claim Shukri denied. (AP)

What a load of crap.

So why didn't this great concentration of weapons ( lying on the beach ) explode ?

Again palestinians and hamas appear the same to the IDF.

We await proof of this pathetic excuse.

I don't think anyone seriously believed they would stick to it.

Right only the sane people knew that but now I would like comment from the usual suspects that claim Israel is the evil aggressor here.
Oh wait this was probably Israels fault right? :rolleyes:
Time to go in and flatten the place like I said before.
Sick of the PC crap. Hamas dont want peace and never will
