We haven’t had a threat to open the gates of hell in quite some time, so I thought I’d give you the latest one.
Anticipating Israeli military action, Hamas gunmen took up positions overnight near Gaza’s border with Israel, covering themselves with tree branches as camouflage.
“The Zionist enemy should understand that any thought of raiding the Gaza Strip will open the gates of hell and hundreds of rockets will be launched against (the southern Israeli towns) of Sderot and Ashkelon and beyond,” said Qassam brigades spokesman Abu Ubaida.
Not that I believe him, but Olmert has already said no to letting the IDF hunt some terrorists in Gaza.
Shame.
Olmert needs to get some backbone !!
Oh I am sure that threats from the limpid metrosexuals Ehud Olmert and Amir Peretz is really terrifying the Paleos.
I did notice the Egyptians are telling them to stop with the rockets. I think they are afraid that too much more pressure in Gaza and Egypt will be picking up some unwelcome immigrants.
Why don’t their Muslim brothers want the Pals anywhere near them?
I’m not sure how much choice Olmert’s going to have… events on the ground are going to force the situation sooner or later. All of Gaza is a booby trapped death trap though – one wonders if the IDF is ready to do the kind of house to house fighting that they did in Defensive Shield.
Heh
“Covering themselves with tree braches as camouflage.”
The IDF better not attack with flaming hoops or else they’ll be sorry…
