One day into fragile truce, Gaza militants fire rockets at Israel

Palestinian militants in the Gaza Strip fired two Qassam rockets at Israel on Monday, despite a day-old cease-fire that was intended to end five months of violence in the area, Palestinian witnesses and police said.

The Al-Aqsa Martyrs Brigades, an armed offshoot of Palestinian Authority Chairman Mahmoud Abbas' Fatah movement, claimed responsibility for the rocket attacks.

Israel Police spokesman Mickey Rosenfeld confirmed the rockets were fired at Israel, but said police were unsure where they had landed. The rescue services said there were no reports of injuries from the rockets.

Terrorist Abbas: "Excellent. Then it is agreed. You promise to give us Israel and the
endless opportunity to rocket, maim, murder, and terrorize Israelis with impunity;
and in return, we verbally agree to exterminate you and your family .... last."

The Pali terrorists can't let themselves be upstaged by the exploding grandma.

Was there a truce? I don't recall serious discussion of any truce. Some people might have been thinking about it, and called the newspapers and radio-TV people, but we are talking about Palestinian Arabs, here, as one of the participants.

Islamic jihadists do not recognize any truce beyond however long it takes them to reload and aim.

And this is the meaning of peace. How many times have we heard it? The terrorists are allowed to kill and the world sits back and calls it peace but if Israel goes after the terrorist all hell breaks loose. This is a sick world.

We (correctly) bet that the paleostinians would NOT honor the "truce" for even one (1) day.

We now bet that when Israel retailiates for endless rockets attacks
that Israel will be (falsely) blamed as the breaker of the "truce" by the MSM.

Israel will not respond. In celebration of the Season, Israel is turning the other cheek.

IDF ordered not to respond to Qassams

Isreal/Pali Truce equals "Isreal is to be still while the Pali's aim"

The only difference between truce days and non-truce days, is that the Amalekstinians fire more rockets on non-truce days.
