Israel has closed its border crossings with Gaza after yesterday's major terrorist attack. Hamas and their terror minions responded with launching more kassams into Israel, including into Sderot. They threaten to launch still more.
Oh, you mean you haven't heard about the major terrorist attack yesterday (that is if you weren't reading here)? More than 40 kassams and mortars were fired at Israel and several landed in Ashkelon, injuring three people. That came after Israeli forces took out a terror cell planning on using a tunnel to infiltrate Israel with the express purpose of kidnapping and/or killing Israelis.
Hamas has never stopped plotting attacks against Israel, and to think that the hudna is the basis on which a lasting peace can be achieved is just fooling yourself. Hamas has not altered its central ideological and theological goal - the destruction of Israel. Neither has Fatah for that matter, but Fatah is at least paying lip service to the political process and Israel figures that Fatah is more likely to work through the political process to destroy Israel than overt violence, although that too is a foolish proposition given Fatah's propensity to engage in violence through its subordinates and wholly owned terrorist subsidiaries like the al Aqsa Martyr's Brigade.
UPDATE:
Still more kassams fired into Israel. No reports of injuries. I can't wait for President Obama to start calling Hamas a partner in peace. It's only a matter of time.
