| Gaza Free-Fire Zone Announced |
| 2005-12-28 |
| From 6 p.m. local time, Wednesday, Dec. 28, any person entering the buffer zone of northern Gaza will be a target. Israeli’s armed forces has formally conveyed this notice to the Palestinian Authority. It follows daily Palestinian Qassam missile attacks on surrounding Israeli locations and the failure of PA chairman Mahmoud Abbas to stop the shooting. Jihad Islami Wednesday rejected his appeal to cease the missile fire. Washington justifies Israel’s response to the Palestinian attacks but regrets the decision to enforce a security zone in northern Gaza. |

| #6 I wouldn't put it past the Paleos to send out a kid (or better yet a young girl) into the buffer zone and shoot him/her themselves. The've done it before. |

| #5 Yep, I called it. Paleos send out a kid to be the first one hurt: Israel began enforcing a no-go zone in northern Gaza, firing shells and threatening to shoot anyone who approaches the border — an attempt to stop Palestinian rocket fire. A 14-year-old Palestinian boy was slightly wounded by a shell fragment, Palestinian doctors said. I hate it when I'm right. |

| #4 Washington justifies Israel’s response to the Palestinian attacks but regrets the decision to enforce a security zone in northern Gaza. The only thing to regret is ever believing that the Paleos were an actual "partner" in any peace negotiations. That they have been unable/unwilling to enforce any agreements or impose order is a clear indicator that further talks would be a colossal waste of time. Any U.S. President would do well to never again bring up the idea of Palestinians having their own state until the Paleos themselves take the necessary steps to cure themselves of their addiction to armed conflict and Jew killing. |

| #2 Lessee if Hamas decides to hold a Widows and Orphans Picnic-n-Quilting Bee in the area right about 5:30 or so...complete with baby duck petting zoo and Kaaba Moon Rock Bounce. |
