I couldn't resist a peak, and screw 'em!
"Gaza truce holds despite pressure; Both sides strain fragile agreement" by Isabel Kershner, New York Times News Service | June 27, 2008
JERUSALEM - A week-old truce between Israel and the Hamas rulers of Gaza frayed further yesterday when Palestinian militants launched two rockets against Israel and Israel prevented goods from entering Gaza for a second day.
One of the rockets fell harmlessly in an open area across the Israeli border, a military spokesman said. No details were available about the second.
Fell harmlessly in open areas, huh?
Aside from the rockets and border sanctions, there have been several reports from Gaza of Israeli troops along the border opening fire to force Palestinian farmers away from agricultural land near the border fence. There have been similar reports of shooting from Israeli Navy vessels to keep Palestinian fisherman within proscribed areas close to the shore.
War crimes and the world doesn't even bat an eye!
According to data provided by a UN official in the region, two elderly Palestinian men were seriously wounded by the Army fire, including a farmer, 82, who was shot east of Khan Yunis, in southern Gaza, on June 25.
I'd like to know exactly what kind of threat an 82-year-old man is, anyway?
Israeli military officials, who were speaking on condition of anonymity under Army rules, acknowledged that forces had fired into the air as a warning on June 25, when a group of people were spotted approaching the border fence east of Khan Yunis, but said there was no record of anybody having been hit. They could not confirm any other shooting incidents.
The Al-Aqsa Martyrs Brigades, a group nominally associated with the mainstream Fatah organization led by President Mahmoud Abbas, said it fired the rockets yesterday.
Of course, the rocket launchers were from PEACEFUL MODERATE FATAH, proving what ZIONIST AGENTS they are!!
That's if they are indeed responsible (consider the source).
Of course, Israel hold Hamas responsible no matter who it is that fires off rockets into empty fields.
Yup, even if it is ISRAELI SETTLERS firing off the rockets!
