    Gaza rockets hit Israel after ceasefire: police


    Gaza rockets hit Israel after ceasefire: police

    JERUSALEM (Reuters) - Palestinian militants in the Gaza Strip launched 12 rockets into Israel during the hour after a ceasefire was announced between Israel and Islamist militants on Wednesday, an Israeli police spokesman said.
    Israel and the Islamist Hamas movement agreed to an Egyptian-sponsored ceasefire that came into effect at 9 p.m. (1500 EDT) to halt an eight-day conflict around the Gaza Strip that has killed more than 140 Palestinians and five Israelis.
    Spokesman Micky Rosenfeld said the 12 rockets landed in open areas and caused no damage or casualties. "We have not changed our mode of alert and remain vigilant," Rosenfeld said.
    An Israeli military spokeswoman said the "Iron Dome" anti-missile system had intercepted some of the rockets. She added that Israel had ceased all air strikes on Gaza after the ceasefire came into effect.
    In Gaza, witnesses reported one explosion shortly after the truce took effect, but there were no casualties and the cause of the blast was unclear.

    LOL! These savages couldn't even be peaceful for more than one hour. Of course, the Obama admin $#@!s in the media will say that the Obama admin brokered truce is holding as long as the Israelis don't shoot back.

    Only fools trust liberals. When the Israelis pulled out of the Gaza Strip the Israelis and the world were assured it would usher a new era of peace between Israel and Hamas. Actually, the number of rockets fired into Israel by the terrorists was a thousand a year before the pullout and two thousand a year after.

    The Israelis should just pound Gaza with artillery every time a rocket is launched.

    Hamas is not the only player in Gaza. There are numerous extremists groups there who have no allegiance to Egypt. The cease fire depends on them playing along. Good luck. Iran has a big interest in keeping Israel occupied with something other than Iran.

    Hamas allows them to operate there. They are ultimately responsible. IMHO

    I am not sure that Hamas has that much control. My point is that any cease fire that included the terms no attacks from Gaza are doomed to fail, because neither Hamas nor Egypt has control over many other players who have mal intent.

    I understand your point, but Hamas has taken on the mantle of gov't. They have also ruthlessly exterminated their political rivals. If they are not held accountable, then what use is a one-sided ceasefire.

    Agreed.

    The cease fire will fail for the reasons I sated above.
