Ceasefire – the travesty continues

Palestinian lawmaker Saeb Erekat on Monday condemned a Qassam rocket strike on Israel from Gaza earlier in the day, but said that the day-old cease-fire between Israel and the Palestinians “can work, and I believe we have to make it work.”

Speaking to Channel 2 Television, Erekat called for patience regarding the truce violations. “I admit there were Palestinian violations, [and] let me condemn them,” he said.

No worries, Saeb, please feel free to condemn them. Let’s just read together the following quote from the same article:

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

Them Al-Aqsa Wannabe Martyrs – are they from your own (Fatah) gang, as it looks? No mistake?

OK, now let’s hear the condemnations…

One Response to Ceasefire – the travesty continues

  1. Ed Hausman says:

    From today’w Jerusalem Post:

    Prime Minister Ehud Olmert said on Tuesday evening that “we are a little disappointed by the continuation of Kassam rocket fire at the South by the Palestinians.”

    Speaking at a meeting with European Union envoys at the Finnish Embassy, Olmert added, “I hope very much that the Palestinians will honor their obligations and stop the fire.”

    I hope so too. But Olmert isn’t paid to hope, he’s paid to act. So far, not a real good act.

    Here’s one more vote for a Zionist response: they shoot at Israel, Israel pushes them back. Buffer zones at the north and south ends of the Gaza Strip to begin with. Destruction of residential areas used as launch sites if they continue.

    No one complained when Israel destroyed Jewish residential areas.
