That's, er, fucking useless... Is there a story? Or did Israelis just storm into a pizza parlor and shoot? I mean, I don't want to sound callous, but saying that the truce was broken by Israelis "killing Palestinians" is utterly useless. Did the Palestinians pull a gun and threaten a police officer? Did Israeli commandos barge into the guy's house and shoot indiscriminately? I mean, I have to be somewhat skeptical of a story with no details. If a crime was committed, if it was in the middle of a firefight, or something similar, I don't think that means anything with regards to the truce. Maybe you can find a link with some actual story to it? And just so you know, the only reason I ask is because the media has a history (a long and sordid and definitely proveable one) of not telling the whole story with regards to the actions Israel takes. Usually the story takes a form similar to yours, where inflammatory terms are used (Israelis pledged to stop "killing Palestinians," for example) and no details are given (not one detail about the Palestinian; namely what was he doing, why was he shot, what's the actual story... I see none of that here, and since this is an Arab news source and they have no ability whatsoever to be unbiased with regards to Israel, barring further evidence, I'd have to say this story is really not anything worthy of discussion. At least for now... Unless we learn more details... Wow… That’s, er, fucking useless…

What truce? In the real world, it's deeds, not words that matter. For some reason, the MSM and intelligentsia only need words from the Pal side, but hard-core deeds from the Israeli side. This shit isn't getting old, it's <i>beyond</i> old. The only thing Israel can do is get out of Gaza, finish the wall, and move on. In other words, they have to take care of business, cuz nobody else will. Truce? What truce? In the real world, it’s deeds, not words that matter.
