Gazan Doctor: Death Toll was Inflated

750 out of 900 killed were Hamas terrorists.

Yes, a death of a Palestinian-Arab is no less a tragedy of an Israeli one. That's why Hamas shouldn't shoot from schools, Mosques (VIDEO) and hiding among kids like this:

This isn't the first time inflated numbers were used.  The infamous "Jenin Massacre" in 2005 was a complete lie -- the UN even released the report! 

Back story on Jenin: (2005) After wave-after-wave of suicide bombers attacking Israeli restaurants and supermarkets, Israel sent soldiers door-to-door in this bomb-making factory of a town, Jenin (West Bank). Israel sent soldiers into a very hostile area to find the terrorists INSTEAD of bombing from the air and possibly causing civilian casualties.

Hamas breaks "cease-fire" just hours after: 13 rockets launched, mortars fired into Israeli towns

BOYZ N THE HUDNA

Israel ceases fire. Will Hamas?  In the news, we'll hear Hamas calling for a cease-fire in English but that's a bunch of B.S.  They'll be calling for a HUDNA.

The O.G. himself, Muhammed, took over Mecca from the Quraysh tribe by calling for a "Hudna," a temporary ceasefire -- until he rearmed.  

It's kinda like you when you were a kid and you used to play-fight with your friends.  Someone yells, "Truce!  Truce!" until he catches his breath and pounces on you again.

For the past ten Hudna's that Hamas has called over the past 10 years, they have broken every one of them.

FREE THE PALESTINIANS........FROM HAMAS TERRORISTS

US/Israel Sign "Memorandum of Understanding on Ceasefire"

Quote of the Day: "If Hamas shoots, we will have to respond, and if it shoots after a period of time, we will have to mount another campaign," Foreign Minister Tzipi Livni told Channel 10. "I have said the end doesn't have to be in agreement with Hamas but rather in arrangements against Hamas."

Good info & stats here (props to The Israel Project) on the potential ceasefire.

It was bound to happen.....joining the bloggin' world, that is.

A FIGHT ON 4 FRONTS:

1. Rockets from Lebanon in the north
2. Shooting from Jordan in the east
3. Hamas launching rockets in the south
4. Jews around the world fending for themselves

But how do you defend yourself against a leadership that does this?
