BREAKING NEWS: Hamas jihadists starts firing salvo after salvo of rockets at Israel. War starts again. by joelcrosenberg It pains me to say that Hamas has started firing rockets at Israel again. The cease-fire period has ended and clearly the jihadists are not finished trying to murder Israeli Jews and Arabs and bring further devastation to Gaza. This despite a new poll showing that "an overwhelming 92 percent of Palestinians living in the Gaza Strip are in favor of a long-term ceasefire between Israel and Hamas, and 72% hope their leaders will work to achieve a lasting peace agreement with the Jewish state," notes the Times of Israel. Here's what we know so far tonight. "Jerusalem had hoped Hamas would agree to another 72 hour extension to allow time for Israeli and Palestinian negotiating teams in Cairo to come to an agreement that would end Operation Protective Edge, which now enters its 32nd day," reports the Jerusalem Post. " Hamas spokesman Sami Abu Zuhri said his organization had rejected the idea of an extension, but would continue to negotiate." "Economic Affair Minister Naftali Bennett called on the government to pull its delegation out of the Cairo talks," noted the Post. "Its sends the wrong message to Hamas for Israel to negotiate under fire, he said, explaining that what was needed was a military response. 'Our response has to be harsh. Operation Protective Edge has not ended. Israeli citizens have to stand strong.  The IDF said that 11 Gaza launched rockets and mortars had fired into Israel in the first hour after the cease fire ended. During that salvo, one rocket was shot down over Ashkelon and 7 more landed in open areas in the Hof Ashkelon region."
