Gaza’s terrorist rulers marked the ceasefire that went into effect on Wednesday evening by continuing to fire rockets at southern Israel.

Since Wednesday morning, Gaza-based terrorists fired more than 116 rockets into Israel. Iron Dome intercepted 20 rockets during the day.

Five people who were hurt in the terrorist attack on a Tel Aviv bus on Wednesday are still in the Ichilov Hospital. One is suffering from moderate injuries and the rest have light injuries.

Earlier on Wednesday evening, Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu, Defense Minister Ehud Barak and Foreign Minister Avigdor Lieberman held a joint news conference announcing the ceasefire.

Netanyahu said, "Eight days ago, Israel launched Operation Pillar of Defense, after attacks from Gaza that were carried out at a growing rate the last few months.

"The terror organizations assumed that we would abstain from an aggressive action, but they were wrong. We hit senior leaders, we destroyed thousands of rockets that were aimed at the South, and most of the rockets that were aimed at the center of Israel. We hit Hamas's control mechanisms. .....

For Palis, “ceasefire” means “TIME TO RELOAD”! The only ceasefire they will abide by will happen when they are too dead to pick up a gun...

What!?! How can this happen? I was going to remember everything about the moment in my life when the greatest anti-truth, anti-freedom, anti-individual, anti-life collective in the history of civilization rescinded jihad. Disappointing. Where’s Hillarious? Where’s POSOTUS?

Maybe “Ceasefire” should be when the Israelis are out of ammo and have to re-load, or just wait a minute for re-enforcements ...

This, from our Apaches as an example

The universalism of Islam, in its all-embracing creed, is imposed on the believersas a continuous process of warfare, psychological and political, if not strictly military. . . . The Jihad, accordingly, may be stated as a doctrine of a permanent state of war, not continuous fighting.”2

— Majid Khadduri

They have been firing rockets from Paliland, ever since they have had rockets in Paliland. So how exactly can you tell when they are at peace ? Is there a rocket per day peace threshold ? Maybe we should ask that Nobel Peace prize winner, who just had one of his, ummm, ladies take credit ?

Ceasefire - a short period when Israel doesn’t shoot back as rockets attack them.
