Dear readers,
I havn't posted anything because I was both busy and needed a break.
But now, evening before Rosh Hashana (Jewish New Year) I want to get you up to date with things you probably missed in the media(its just tip of the iceberg).
26.8.14 Hamas leadership in Gaza disobeyes their leader Khaled Mesha'al and agrees to ceasefire without terms. Negotiation for a new long term agreement to begin in September.
Ceasefire should've started in 19:00. In 19:00 Hamas declared that the ceasefire is indeed in action.
But in reality they kept firing rockets for over 20 minutes later.

Terror attacks, Rockets, Bombs, Explosives, Firearms, Molotov cocktails, Knives, Stones, Riots, Vandalism.
Threats from the outside and also from the inside. Against not only soldiers and police but on innocent civilians and even small children and babies. This is just a small tip of the iceberg of the last few weeks. But guess what you probably didn't hear it in your local media. Where is the outrage? Is the life of an Israeli child is less sacred and less valued than other children? When Hamas fires rockets from Gaza its not the only issue Israel and its civilians have to deal with. Open your eyes.
STOP TERROR! STOP HAMAS!
