Well well well, whadd'ya' know?
Seems Hamas has broken the temporary ceasefire.
You all are probably as shocked as we are.
Ahem.
Josh Kraushaar (@JoshKraushaar) ~ The breaking news leading @J_Insider: "The war has resumed in Israel and Gaza, with Hamas breaking the terms of the temporary pause with a salvo of rockets fired at Israel’s south on Friday, shortly before the deadline to submit a list of 10 living Israeli hostages to be released." (via @LahavHarkov)

Not to mention they took credit for shooting three innocent people at a bus stop in Jerusalem earlier this week.
Josh Kraushaar (@JoshKraushaar) ~ "The resumption of hostilities came the day after Secretary of State Tony Blinken was in Israel to urge a continued pause. Blinken expressed concern to Israel’s leaders in Thursday’s war cabinet meeting that southern Gaza will have to be evacuated the way northern Gaza was, something that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu reassured him would not be the case."
Imagine if Blinken spoke this way to Hamas' leaders.
Oh, THAT'S right, they never seem to want to deal with Hamas.
Wonder why.
Josh Kraushaar (@JoshKraushaar) ~ "Blinken turned over a figurative hourglass for Israel’s war with Hamas during his visit, asking Israel’s political and defense leadership in the war cabinet meeting how long they thought the war would last. Defense Minister Yoav Gallant responded that Israel will take all the time it needs to destroy Hamas, because if it doesn’t, “Hezbollah or someone else will attack and we won’t survive here. It won’t take weeks; it’ll take months.”
Josh Kraushaar (@JoshKraushaar) ~ "The secretary of state avoided making statements in public that would give the impression that he is putting a time limit on the war, but Gallant made his position on the matter clear at a photo-op between the two soon after the cabinet meeting.
Gallant: “This is a just war for the future of the Jewish people and the future of Israel. We are going to fight Hamas until we prevail, no matter how long it takes.”
So basically, Blinken showed up to shame Israel about the war, and then Hamas broke the ceasefire.
Let's hear it for the Biden administration!
Wow.
Secretary of State Blinken is a moron ... just like his boss.
