Pretty good indication that Hamas is backing off the attacks, for now, without any of the concessions that Obama was trying to get for them. Why else would they feel the need to declare public victory?
I hope anyway.
I also hope Israel isn’t pulling out too soon.
Israel is always trying to show massive restrain because they are constantly getting chewed out by the media and leadership of the world for everything they do. If they do pull out too soon though, it will only be a matter of time before Hamas is at it again, and probably with more weapons than before. *sigh*
