Default Israel dismisses truce offer as 'not serious'




Quote:
JERUSALEM (AFP) — Israel on Friday dismissed as "not serious" a Hamas proposal for a six-month truce in the Gaza Strip that could later extend to the occupied West Bank.

"Unfortunately, this appears not to be serious at all," government spokesman Mark Regev said after the Islamist Hamas movement that controls Gaza told Egypt on Thursday that it agreed to implement a ceasefire.

Regev said that Hamas continued to target Israel and build up its military capacity. "The quiet they seem to be proposing is the quiet before the storm," he said.

Israel will never shed itself of its terrorist problem. They'll still be fighting them 50 years from now.

No one is going to be able to kill their way out of this.

We should lend Israel a couple of the MOABs. That would clean out the surrounding area.

Of course they dis-missed it! How can you keep up an aggressive posture and be willing to decimate your surround neighbors, while being in a truce with them. I’m not saying Hamas and the like are in anyway legitimate, but Peace is not one of the goals of Israel at this time. Israel is set to do The Current Administration dirty work in being the light to powder keg when the time is called for. If Israel is the one starting the war with Iran, it makes us their support without having to be the aggressor.

Israel will not start a war with Iran, the stakes are Iran must retaliate, I think Iran can retaliate. 1967, 1947 Arabs were leaving in tents then these Europeans appeared with tanks, mustangs, spitfires and the Palestianians were pushed of their land. Suddenly in 1973 these Arabs were armed and Israel was saved by a massive arms shipment from Nixon, never better soldiers, better equiped hence the need to keep countries disarmed, never better soldiers, 1973 proved that, it was America that won that war not Israel. Assasins, maybe good, but killng somebody not expecting it is hard if he is well defended but easy if he is walking alone in the street.
