Quartet quietly backpedalling on Hamas; Israel sucker punched
Bush holds the line, barely. But the Quartet is already buckling.. Hamas’ Government is not even formed and already the quartet is compromising on even the most basic tenets Olmert’s Government was counting on!
The new arbitrators of the State of Israel do not sit in Jerusalem, that much is becoming apparently clear. Olmert and his Foreign Ministry put their eggs in with the Quartet basket, they better be prepared to witness the runny mess that is about to result.. Broken eggs and all.

Big Guns of Israel firing: Artillery response to Qassam rockets
IDF Release:
Following the projectile rocket fire at Israel this morning the IDF is responding with artillery fire at projectile rocket launching areas in the northern Gaza strip, from which Palestinians launched the rockets.
A number of Qassams rockets (5) hit Israel today, Israel’s response is to so far bombard ‘No Go’ zones in the Northern Gaza strip, named as such because if you go into these buffer zones.. Well, you get the picture. These areas are being used as staging grounds by Terrorist rocket / mortar teams to fire Qassams at Israeli population zones. Israel is bombarding whether there’s a target or not to emphasize the point.
Worldnet has great article today on the threat by Terrorists to inundate Israel with new longer ranged Rockets from the West Bank.
