Military confirms 3-hour lull in Gaza to allow aid

news.yahoo.com...

So even as they go after Hamas Israel does what it can for the Palestinian people. Kind of kills the Hamas Lovers arguements on here of Israel targeting Palestinians.

Hamas have also agreed not to fire any rockets in the three hour period.After that israel can go back to dropping 500 pound bombs on densely populated areas and kill even more civilians. I wonder how much aid you can get into gaza within three hours to feed nearly 1.5 million people.Awfully nice of israel.

I want to star all your posts GamerGal, but everytime I see your picture I see brightly glowing stars in your eyes.

Actually at first they refused and they said they would continue the rocket attacks. You know - those rocket attacks that they continually rain down upon Israeli civilians in order to try to kill as many of them as they can. You know - those rocket attacks that CAUSED THIS WHOLE SITUATION.

However, they now agree to stop for three hours. Probably due to pressure from others who are embarrassed by the behavior of Hamas.

Allowing 'aid' is dumb. It won't go to those who need it.
Hamas wil steal it. That's their M.O.
They don't care about the civilians in Gaza.
if they did, they never would have started rocketing Israel to begin with.

Ever heard of propaganda and manipulation. If you believe what's written in this article, and think the Israeli government actually cares for the Palestinian people, then you're a mug. Wake up! All governments always use the media to portray themselves as the good guys, but behind the scenes it's business as usual.

Hamas broke it by firing rockets. They broke it first and Israel is responding

Wheres your evidence to prove hamas broke it first?

Israel broke the ceasefire first and hamas responded by raining hell on israel.

Click here for more information.

Throughout the ceasefire, Israel's blockade sustained a public health crisis disabling hospitals, forcing more than 1.5m people to drink dirty water, and slowly starving the entire area.

Israel recognizes Hamas enough to have a ceasefire on paper, but not enough to negotiate humanitarian relief. (The nominal relief provided was not enough to sustain a population of more than a million people with a completely destroyed infrastructure).

When the ceasefire ended hamas pounded israel.

Let me make this clear

Personal attacks on other members WILL NOT be tolerated.

It can't be put any clearer than that.

Since this action in Gaza broke out certain people seem to think that the ATS Terms and Conditions don't apply. They couldn't be more wrong.

Ad-hominem and off topic posts WILL be removed. I hope thats clear.

I have gone through practically every thread regarding this recent conflict and I am amazed at the fact that no one mentions the everlong and everlasting conflicts between Fatah and Hamas. They have been killing each other for years.

Fatah wants peace with Israel and Hamas wants war. Fatah supports the theory of two states existing side by side. Hamas does not recognize Israel and advocates complete resistance.

Just look at the contrast between the Fatah city of Ramallah and the Hamas armpit of Gaza City. Ramallah is quite civilized and its citizens enjoy a comfortable (normal) lifestyle. The poor citizens of Gaza City can barely eek out and existence because of the self imposed noose that Hamas has placed on the region. They ration bread and the cowardly Hamas controls every aspect of life by threatening the civilians with death or bodily harm.

All of this new aid coming into the area during the 3 hour cease fire will never be used to help those who need it.

The only solution to peace in this area is to place all focus and efforts with Fatah. The average palestinians /majority who want peace will see this and will isolate the others who side with the Hamas terrorists.

Ehhh No, Hamas have stepped in recently while fatah have been governing palestine for decades.

Israel still killed and maimed thousands of palestinians while the 'Moderate' Fatah were in power.In 2001 they flatenned a town in West Bank called Jenin.

There was no Peace when fatah were in power and there won't be any while hamas is in power.The only difference is Fatah are israeli puppets while Hamas knows how to respond.

Your statements just about sum it all up. You have no solutions. As an American I will never understand the fighting in that region. How about bulldozing the entire region into the sea.

Start from scratch. Otherwise, there will never be peace in that region as long as Iran and Syria controls Hamas. Yes, Hamas is a puppet of Iran and Syria.

Israel launched an airstrike which guess what? broke the ceasefire.There were no rockets fired during the peace deal until israel broke it...and even then like i have said before,israel still had a no go area inside gaza where people were shot on sight if they entered..on their OWN land.Israel was still controlling gaza's borders,airspace and coast.Im surprised people in gaza and hamas actually put up with that for so long.

No they didn't. This is Pallywood. The Palestinians claimed hundreds died, total count? 22 the low, 52 the high. And why? They were fighting, not Israel attacked, but fighting. Two sides shooting at each other. Just like when Americans and Japanese soldiers shot at each other and some troops died. www.abovetopsecret.com...
