Valin Posted July 20, 2014 Author Share Posted July 20, 2014 Report: Mashaal, Abbas to Discuss Truce in GazaPA, Hamas leaders to meet over possible truce. But will the meeting change Hamas's commitment to escalation?AFP and Arutz Sheva Staff7/19/14Palestinian Authority (PA) Chairman Mahmoud Abbas and Hamas "political leader" Khaled Mashaal will meet in Qatar Sunday to discuss a truce in Gaza, day 13 of Israel's self-defense operation, an official said. Hamas categorically rejected attempts for a cease-fire in multiple statements, insisting that the terms of the agreement 'did not apply' to them. Later, Hamas officials reportedly set a series of unprecedented demands on Israel to accompany a ten-year truce - before threatening Israelis if the government refused to accept. Mashaal, as well as Hamas, have openly encouraged escalation this week, declaring that Israel is "doomed to fail." (Snip) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Valin Posted July 20, 2014 Author Share Posted July 20, 2014 Hell of a Secretary of StateScott Johnson7/20/14I’ll add the video when it is available, but for the moment I want to post this without further comment, as reported by the Washington Post’s Philip Bump regarding John Kerry’s interview by Chris Wallace on FOX News Sunday this morning. Bump omits Wallace’s reference to the loss of 14 lives as a result of Israel’s operation in Gaza, as I recall the set-up, but gives us Kerry’s live reaction to the report transmitted at the other end of a cell phone conversation preceding the interview: In an unusual moment during Fox News Sunday, host Chris Wallace presented Secretary of State John Kerry with video recorded before he came on air.Wallace presented the segment as being in reference to civilians killed in fighting in the Gaza Strip. “While you were on camera and while on microphone,” Wallace said, “you spoke to one of your top aides between the interviews about the situation in Israel.” He then played what the network had recorded. In the clip, Kerry is holding a cellphone conversation with someone. The person on the other end of the call isn’t identified, and the audio from the other participant is staticky. But Kerry’s comments are clear.(Snip) ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ http://youtu.be/GYYRcTGAjmo 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Valin Posted July 20, 2014 Author Share Posted July 20, 2014 UN agency handed rockets back to Hamas, Israel saysUNRWA says it gave 20 missiles found in Gaza school to ‘local authorities’ that are under the ‘government of national consensus in Ramallah’Raphael AhrenJuly 20, 2014 A United Nations agency that last week found rockets in a Gaza school operating under its auspices has handed that weaponry over to Hamas, Israeli officials said Sunday, accusing the organization of actively helping the terrorist organization potentially attack Israeli civilians. “The rockets were passed on to the government authorities in Gaza, which is Hamas. In other words, UNRWA handed to Hamas rockets that could well be shot at Israel,” a senior Israeli official told The Times of Israel. A different senior official said UNRWA, the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East, charged with overseeing humanitarian efforts in Gaza, has been suffering from “battered-wife syndrome” for years and currently “attempts to ingratiate itself with Hamas.” (Snip) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valin Posted July 20, 2014 Author Share Posted July 20, 2014 Those Darn Jews Are At It Again!!! IDF set to open field hospital for wounded GazansBorder facility will include emergency clinic, pediatrician and other services for Palestinians injured in clashesTimes of Israel staff July 20, 2014 As civilian casualties mount in the ongoing Gaza conflict, the IDF is set to open a field hospital on the border with the Strip on Sunday evening, with the intention of providing humanitarian services to Palestinians injured in the fighting taking place in the coastal enclave. Gaza sources have said the number of wounded in the coastal enclave has exceeded 3,000, with many more injured Sunday morning in a large clash between IDF troops and Hamas gunmen in Gaza’s Shejaiya neighborhood. Israeli military officials said Sunday that they had told civilians to leave the Shejaiya area days ago, ahead of IDF military action in a neighborhood that is a Hamas stronghold. The facility, which was approved by IDF Chief of Staff Lt.-Gen. Benny Gantz, will open its doors at 8 p.m. on Sunday, the army said in a statement.

Draggingtree Posted July 21, 2014 Share Posted July 21, 2014 Gaza War – More tunnel infiltrations thwarted (Live Updates) Posted by David Gerstman ▪ Monday, July 21, 2014 at 9:00am Intense fighting continues as Israel dismantles Hamas underground military infrastructure Note: There are live Video and Twitter feeds at the bottom of the post —————————– Overnight Hamas attempted two infiltrations through tunnels, one of which opened up near the dining room of Kibbutz in Israel. Both sets of terrorists were eliminated by the IDF. There are unspecified reports of Israeli casualties. The Times of Israel reports: In open ground near Erez five terrorists come out of a tunnel shortly after six in the morning. They surface near the security fence and only a few hundred yards from the nearest community. An IAF aircraft intercepts them, killing all five, with no Israelis wounded. … Near Kibbutz Nir Am, a second group of terrorists surface on the Israeli side of the border. http://legalinsurrection.com/2014/07/gaza-war-more-tunnel-infiltrations-twarted/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valin Posted July 21, 2014 Author Share Posted July 21, 2014 All The News Hamas Sees Fit to Print NOAH POLLAK Jul 20, 2014 Something important is missing from the New York Times's coverage of the war in Gaza: photographs of terrorist attacks on Israel, and pictures of Hamas fighters, tunnels, weaponry, and use of human shields. It appears the Times is silently but happily complying with a Hamas demand that the only pictures from Gaza are of civilians and never of fighters. The most influential news organization in the world is thus manufacturing an utterly false portrait of the battleprecisely the portrait that Hamas finds most helpful: embattled, victimized Gaza civilians under attack by a cruel Israeli military. A review of the Times's photography in Gaza reveals a stark contrast in how the two sides are portrayed. Nearly every picture from Israel depicts tanks, soldiers, or attack helicopters. And every picture of Gaza depicts either bloodied civilians, destroyed buildings, overflowing hospitals, or other images of civilian anguish. It is as one-sided and misleading a depiction of the Gaza battle as one can imagine. (Snip) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Valin Posted July 21, 2014 Author Share Posted July 21, 2014 Hamas: Cease-Fire Only If We Get Free Electricity Hamas said that if Israel wants a cease-fire, it's going to have to pay - in free electricity for Gaza. Moshe Cohen 7/21/2014 Among the demands Hamas has demanded that Israel fulfill in exchange for a cease-fire is the continued unlimited supply of free electricity by Israel to terrorists-run Gaza. The electricity demand was one of ten commands Hamas has put forth, the terror group said. Hamas owes the Israel Electric Company (IEC) hundreds of millions of shekels, part of the 1.4 billion shekel electricity bill that the Palestinian Authority owes. Neither the PA nor Gaza have paid for electricity for at least a decade. (Snip) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
