Hamas said to offer Israel long-term ceasefire in Gaza
2018-05-08
[IsraelTimes] Hamas, a contraction of the Arabic words for "frothing at the mouth", has in recent months repeatedly expressed willingness through several channels to enter into talks with Israel over a long-term ceasefire in the Gazoo Strip, highlighting the Paleostinian terror group’s "dire" strategic situation, according to a report Monday.
No doubt they are willing to discuss a hudna. But will they stop digging tunnels, acquiring rockets, sending incendiary kites to burn Israeli fields, train children to be jihadis, and otherwise prepare for their next attemt to overrun the Juices living in the land the Palestinians claim?
According to the Haaretz newspaper, in return for the years-long ceasefire, Hamas wants the agreement to include Israel significantly easing the blockade over Gazoo, approving large-scale infrastructure projects and possibly a prisoner swap deal.

Top Israeli security officials have recently presented the politicianship with intelligence indicating that Hamas, finding itself in an "unprecedented" crisis, is currently open to discussing issues that it had rejected in the past, Haaretz reported.

It appeared Israel had not responded to Hamas’ overtures, the report said.

Hamas, an Islamist terror group that seeks to destroy Israel, has made similar proposals in the past.

The report follows several indications that Hamas is deeply divided as it seeks a way out of the dire situation in Gazoo, where it seized power in 2007. The Strip which faces an economic crisis, sanctions from the Ramallah-based Paleostinian Authority, continued pressure from the Israeli-Egyptian security blockade and rising internal unrest.

#4  Reminds me of the NVA leaders at the Paris peace talks. Paleo's just wanting time to dig more terror jihad tunnels.

Nothing more.

#3  Paging Colonel Drastripes, Colonel Constantine Drastripes.

Raspail's The Camp of Saints, pages 176-177.

(As the French army moves to the coast to meet the flotilla of invading immigrants)

"Press," explains Dio. "Kiss my ass!" replies the colonel, his fists clenched. An officer comes between them, with all due repsect. "Drop dead!" roars the colonel, and he turns and climbs into his tank. Only his chest, ablaze with ribbons, and his glowering, helmeted face, stick up from the turrent. Lovely military tableau, washed in a flood of almost eerie light. The tank bears the name Bir Hacheim. You can't do it! You can't!" "Bullshit I can't!" cries the coloen, in his frontline voice. "If the bastards (leftest, pro-immigrant protestors) don't get up, I'll run them over!"

One stretched out almost under the tracks of the tank. Long beard, curly hair, the face of a sculptured Italian Christ. "Who are you?" Dio asks him. "G.L.A.," the prone figure replies. Gay Liberation Alliance. "And you?" he asks another. "Just people," is the answer. "Proletarians. No special name." The purest of the pure in Dio's book. "He's going to mow you all down," he tells them. "Not a chance, he won't dare" the homosexual answers. "For God's sake get up!" an officer pleads. "Can't you see, here he comes!" The mass of steel has started to move. Imperceptibly at first, as the tracks nibble forward, inch by inch. "Colonel!" screams the offier. "Balls!" replies the colonel. Nan-Chan shuts her eyes. Her Western half can't take it any more. A few moments later, when she opens them agakin - to please her Oriental half - the Italian Christ has disappeard, and the tanks tracks are dragging chunks of shredded, bloody flesh. And all without a sound...One after another the figures (protestors) gets out of the way, but only at the very last moment.

#2  It is a waste of time negotiating with these "paleo" squatters.

#1  Of course, their notions of ceasefire are - somewhat - one sided.
