I've Been Thinking:
Over the past few days Gaza terrorists have been lofting rockets into Israel.
It does not make a difference which specific group is actually responsible for the rockets - Hamas is in charge of Gaza, they are the address. Whatever comes out of Gaza, whoever sends it out of Gaza, the ruling force is still responsible. And that force is Hamas.
After the rockets were launched, Israel responded by conducting air strikes against the launch pads.
And then Hamas said that the Israeli response to the rockets was a violation of the ceasefire agreement.
Hamas official Ismail Radwan said on Thursday that the Israeli aerial strikes against Gaza in response to rocket fire was "a violation of the ceasefire terms, and the occupation bears responsibility for it."
Well, maybe. But if the Israeli response was a violation of the ceasefire, what would you call the original rockets that were fired into Israel.
Would you call those a gesture of peace?
