Ignoring the Obvious

There is no ceasefire. It lasted all of less than a week before Palestinian terrorists fired off mortars and rockets at Israel. That doesn't include the carnage on Jaffa Street in Jerusalem when a Palestinian terrorist used a front end loader to crush cars and over turn buses along the way to killing three people and wounding more than 50.

Rockets and mortars continue hitting Israel, and the terrorists want people to think that it is Israel's fault that the ceasefire gets broken.

The army said the shell landed in an open area near Nahal Oz, causing no casualties or damage.

Last Tuesday, Israel reopened the Gaza crossings, following the closure of the terminals in response to a Kassam attack on Thursday. There was no word on how Israel would respond to Monday's mortar shell attack.

Earlier Monday, IDF troops shut the facilities of a Hamas-affiliated charity, including a girls' school, a medical center and two other sites, during a raid in Nablus, witnesses said.

Hamas and the other terrorists want people to think that Israel's shuttering of terrorist operations in the West Bank violates the ceasefire. Never mind that the terrorists have not stopped plotting attacks, to say nothing of carrying them out under the banner of aligned terror groups.

Palestinians in Nablus are busy throwing bombs and molotov cocktails at Israeli soldiers patrolling the area in search for terrorists.

This comes at a time when Israel is busy trying to crack down on Hamas' fundraising activities in the West Bank. It's something that should have been done a long time ago. Instead, the terrorist group has managed to sustain itself despite the isolation in Gaza.
