The militant Islamist organization Hamas announced Thursday evening that the cease-fire with Israel in Gaza is over, 24 hours before the six-month truce was due to expire.
"The calm, which was reached with Egyptian sponsorship on June 19 and expires on December 19, is finished because the enemy did not abide by its obligations," said Hamas official Ayman Taha, who respresented the group in talks with other Palestinian factions. "The calm is over."

Stand by for closing punctuation.
There was a ceasefire?
Good. Now Israel, wipe them out.
...Dreaming on....
This means that they have completed rearming.
I think a a”calm” is different from a “ceasefire.” I dunno.
We Jihad while raping and executing women and children. If armed forces attack we kill ourselves because Allah loves a coward.
We only Jihad after signing peace accords, which means we still Jihad, but our enemies do not fire back.
Our greatest Jihads happen after rearming and recruiting more cowardly murders.
Scr*w Islam.
Hamas announcing that they are ending their ceasefire with Israel is like me announcing an end to my pro basketball career.
Lovely, just before Hanukkah. Heathens once and always.
Yup. Timing is perfect Jihadi group-think. The Hadj is over and the Jewish High Holy Days approach with Hanukkah. Just in time for a new winter offensive.
FYI...Let’s see what happens next.
let’s see if this changes reality on the ground . . . i rather doubt it. Israel is right in the middle of political season. Barring a rocket attack which manages to do more then bury itself into pavement, I’m not sure the current Israeli .gov is going to do anything more than a token retalitory strike here and there.
Now if one of the rockets got “lucky” and caused a number of fatalities . . . then maybe I can see a massive coordinated ground/air/sea op in Gaza aimed at Hamas.
Now if Likud takes back over after the next election . . . then I wouldn’t want to be living anywhere near Gaza, West Bank, Beirut, South Lebanon, Bekka Valley, Damascus, Tehran, etc.

Agree with your sentiments.....
Just correcting a point — Hanukkah is not the High Holy Days. It is a very beautiful and joyous holiday but a relatively minor one on the Jewish calendar.
Everybody needs to clam down.
They are not even going to wait till after the coronation?
I.J. have mostly been the ones firing rockets over the past couple of days. With the Hamas ‘truce’ now declared over I think we can expect to see a direct Hamas military response rather than just an I.J. one in the future, e.g. much more powerful and longer range rockets & in much bigger salvos, anti-tank missile attacks, Hizbullah style raids etc.
Anything like that is going to bring a much harsher response from Israel than anything weve seen for the past 6 months.
When will politicians figure out that a "Palestinian/Israel Peace Accord" is impossible. Every president thinks that he is going to solve this problem, well, you can't solve this problem until the Palestinians decide that they will give up killing Jews. I don't see that happening any time soon.
hey hamas, BRING IT
Israel has only 33 days left to take care of business.
Hanukkah begins at Sundown on Sunday...I see Hamas is timing things perfectly...I hope Israel wipes them all off the map!!!
What a bunch of BS! There never was a “ceasefire,” and there is no such concept in the fundamentalist Islamic playbook. A Muslim “ceasefire” is actually what they call a “hudna” or a temporary cessation of hostilities to allow the Muslim side to grow stronger militarily while his enemies are idle.
They must be rearmed to the teeth now...... That’s all it means.
Looks like they’ve had eough timne to re-arm.
I am in Israel, and didn’t notice.
The only reason Arabs and other enemies ever agree to a ceasefire, is to restock, rearm, and regroup. Then they just attack again.
...doesn't anyone remember all the trash from the last 2,000 years...or the horrors of the Holocaust, the 20's, 30's. 40's( War of Survival) 50's( Egypt), 60's( 6 D day war), 70's( Yom Kippur, 80's Lebanon, 90's Intifada,21centuray...more of all the same plus more anti semitism than EVER before??????
PS thanks for posting this before I woke up and read it at Haretz that has become the PNN( paletinian Nerd netweork comparatively to the Y'rushalaiim Post or Arutz Sheva.....
Sorry for all the misspells above , I think I was on a roll, mmmm goood coffee.....
Why does nobody get the script?
Because they don’t get the first basic fact: the Israeli government is controlled by members of a group where one of the agendas is to sell that “Armageddon is the destruction of Israel”.
When did Hamas declare a cease-fire?
Hamas has been allowing I.J. to do their dirty work for some time now . . . nothing changes until heavier arty starts flying out of Gaza into Israel
Since we are winding things down in Iraq, maybe a few of our troops should head to Gaza to deliver more ass-whuppins to sand Nazis.
You mean, there ever was a ceasefire?
Granting a “ceasefire” to an Islamist - is simply granting the treacherous bastards an opportunity to rest, rearm, recruit, repair, rape the goats and little boys before returning to the fight...
The ONLY ceasefire granted to islamists is that final peaceful dirt nap they all aspire to.......we should expedite their journey to Allah and their 72 white raisins...
IT WON’T BE LONG NOW
LMAO!!!
You don’t live with cockroaches....you kill them.
Hamassholes!
WELL PUT

I think that is written in Arabic on the first page of every Koran.
Hanukkah is not among the High Holy Days, which were last fall.
>>There was a ceasefire?<<
I wonder if they see any irony in saying they had a cease fire while they sent rockets aimed at civilians?
Time to teach Hamas the real meaning of Channukah, as in a total Israeli victory over its enemies.
Instead of a candle burning for 8 days, I’ll settle for Gaza burning until totally crisp.
