   One’s a spent match while the other still manages to emit smoke without being spent?
   Still, appears to be an observation of both parties being like matches in a tinder box.

   The matchs might be burned out but there are plenty more in the boxes.

   The only reason Hamas wanted a ceasefire was because they were out of rockets and needed to reload.

   Hamas, keep Israel talking while Iran sends new missiles.
   What is this all about?
   Could it be forcing Israel to use up all it’s anti-missile missiles so when Iran lobs it’s nuke Isreael won’t be able to stop it?

   @lma
   Don t worry – Israel has more than enough anti-missile systems. And their military industrie is world leading in this things. For ICBM’s they use another caliber of missiles.

   The problem is that nobody of both leaderships wont real peace – because peace would cost an ugly price for each side – and they always sworn in public that they want to make such compromises.

   “forcing Israel to use up all it’s anti-missile missiles”
   
   Obama administration requested, and US Congress approved, nearly $900 billion “for the Iron Dome system in fiscal years 2012–15 . . . for procurement of additional batteries and interceptors, and for operations and sustainment expenses.”
   
   The US will pay for as many batteries as Israel needs, with the expectation that Israel at some point will ‘step up’ and pitch in also.

   What is this all about?
   
   And the US keeps sending money and weapons to Israel that gets used to kill innocent civilians. What’s that about?

    I have a hunch this whole episode was Israel’s plan to test the missile system in case they get into a shooting war with Iran.

    Iran has no nuke, isn’t building one and Israel has hundreds of nukes now. So stop with the lies.

    With every confrontation Israel kills more Palestinians than the free agent missileteers do of Israelis. It benefits no one but some people still fight futilely against the stronger aggressor.

    Your right it’s called Hudna, a tempory cease fire under Islamic law. All the cease fires are tempory there. I wonder why.

    “Iran has no nuke, isn’t building one and Israel has hundreds of nukes now. So stop with the lies.”
    Wow, the denial of liberals is immense. And he’s proud of being ignorant and showing it to everyone here.
