Just to recap: In spite of recent headlines that imply that the Palestinians have bent to international pressure and will now accept Israel, Hamas, the legally elected government of the Palestinian territory, proudly states that
We said we accept a state (in territory occupied) in 1967 — but we did not say we accept two states.”
They’ve been shooting rockets into Israel every day for quite a while now, from the newly Jew-free Gaza territory that Israel voluntarily left. This is not “resisting occupation,” it is an act of war. Next, the Palestinians tunneled about 1000 feet into Israel from Gaza, popped up long enough to kill some soldiers and kidnap one, and then escaped back to their own side of the line. More on the tunnel problem here. Now that Israel is responding, brace yourself for the international condemnation that will soon rain down – on Israel.
