How Long
will this Hudna* Last?
The ceasefire went into
effect at 9:00 PM Wednesday, 21 November. Israel made certain concessions. The
most damaging was acceding to Egypt’s role as truce monitor and arbitrator
between itself and Hamas.
Just before the ceasefire
went into effect, terrorists fired a barrage of 40 rockets at the area,
targeting Ashdod, Ashkelon and Be’er Sheva among other cities. 20 rockets were
fired from Gaza into southern Israel in three hours since the ceasefire went
into effect:
At 9:21 three rockets
were fired into Ashkelon and Sderot.
At 9:38 three more landed in
Sha'ar Ha'Negev.
At 10:01 sirens were heard in
Kiryat Malachi and Ashdod.
At 10:08 a rocket landed in
Ashdod.
Let us be totally
honest: This is not a ceasefire - it is SURRENDER! Israel raised the white flag
and surrendered. It gave up and decided to stop fighting.
Hamas, on the other
hand, signed some silly piece of paper given to them by Hillary Clinton, which
they never had any intention of reading nor fulfilling. (*Hudna is an Arabic term - “clam” - meaning a temporary truce, which
Muslims make with intention to violate, as did the prophet Mohamed!)
Hamas Provoking Israel
in order to Break Hudna at any Time
Several hundred Palestinians had
mobbed the Gaza border fence. When they attempted to breach it, a soldier first
fired warning shots in the air, then at the lower limbs of the trespassers - a
Palestinian youth was shot dead and nine were injured by gunfire.
The cease fire was
supposed to go into effect at 9 pm local time, but the rockets were still
flying in record numbers out of Gaza. The reality is that Hamas does not want
to end the fighting and will no doubt use any opportunity to begin the barrage
again.
1) How much pressure did
Hillary Clinton, representing President Barack Obama, put on Netanyahu to
accept this cease-fire without having brought Hamas’ fire power to an end, and
what will that mean for Israel’s ability to act in its own national security
interests in the future?
2) Should rocket fire from Gaza resume, will
Israel’s government allow the new assault to go unanswered?
According to the
agreement powered together between Clinton and Morsi, any renewed rocket fire
from Gaza will break the agreement, freeing Israel to respond. But will world
opinion and continued US pressure trump the details?
Hamas Prayer for Peace
A reporter from the Hamas “Al
Aqsa” television station rejoiced in the attack and announced that the Arab
world awaits further news of “Zionist casualties.” “God willing we will soon
see black body bags,” he said. “I pray to Allah the exalted that we will see
black body bags in a short while.”
Food for Thought by Steven Shamrak
It is hard to change
preconceived ideas of many Jews - which they formed after being exposed for a
long period of time to anti-Israel propaganda and under the constant threat of
terror and relentless discrimination by enemies and ‘friends’. Those views are
predominately shaped by PTSD (Post-traumatic stress disorder) and the Stockholm syndrome!

Effort of Minimise Civilian Casualties
Israel, armed with precise intelligence and newly
developed munitions, has carried out hundreds of surgical airstrikes in a
campaign meant to hit militants hard while avoiding civilian casualties. Other
technological means used to avoid collateral damage include specially designed
munitions with smaller blowback, a system of sending text messages and
automated phone calls to warn residents to vacate areas ahead of strikes and
stun explosives that are deployed to create large explosive sounds - to scare
off civilians before the real payload is deployed against militants.

Islamists Reject New Syrian Coalition
The new Syrian National Coalition was announced less than two weeks ago
amid much fanfare in Doha - almost immediately recognised by the Gulf states, Turkey and
France. It was snubbed by Islamist groups including the two
most important, the al-Nusra Front and Liwa al-Tawhid. The Islamist rebel groups
announced their aim to make Syria an Islamist state! (The
fakery of Middle Eastern politics is exposed again. Time to face the truth
that, step by step, they are building the Islamic Caliphate - it’s coming to
your neighbourhood! What are you doing in order to prevent it? One can start
with supporting Israel in its fight against our common enemy.)

Quote of the Week:
"(Ban) expressed his concern (to Netanyahu) about the deteriorating

escalation of indiscriminate rocket fire from Gaza into Israel and the targeted
killing by Israel of a Hamas military operative in Gaza," - the United Nations said - The
UN Security Council did not hold an emergency meeting when hundreds of rockets
were fired by terrorists from Gaza and there were ‘concerns’ when the US
performed the targeted killings of Al Quida terrorists!
