    “If corroborated, this would constitute a serious violation of the humanitarian ceasefire in place since 8 am this morning by Gazan militant factions, which should be condemned in the strongest terms,” the UN statement said.

    He said he is concerned about what the results of breaking the ceasefire could be for Gaza. 

    The statement said that Serry called on the Palestinian parties that agreed to the ceasefire to reaffirm their commitment to the ceasefire as soon as possible. “He [Serry] is deeply concerned regarding the serious consequences on the ground that could arise as a result of this incident.”

    What is the difference between condemning in the strongest terms and condemning in other terms?

    How come we don’t hear from John “Baal Keri” who served in Vietnam and then became a traitor. Oh Yes! Ialmost forgot that he voted for the 86 Billion Dollars before he voted against. This baffoon should be the poster child of today Democrat-Liberal.

    Of course they broke the ceasefire, they knew Israel will come in even stronger and the more Palestinians that get killed the better their PR. Their war right now is not to kill Israelis, it’s for Palestinians to die so they can cry to the world “look what the Israelis are doing to us”

    It is taking some time, and maybe it will even happen before Israel is forced to totally destroy Gaza, for N Obama Esq, our John and Wanky Moon to realize that Hamas simply don’t play by the rules of war. The Unwanted Nobodies humanitarian truce concept may work where you have two moral sides but where you have one, losing the battle, that will stoop to nothing, like for example having one of its own blow himself up to lure “the enemy” out, there is on one at home on the losing side to talk to. The Unwanted Nobodies, N Obama Esq and our John, were all pushing for a “humanitarian truce” to help the civilians of Gaza. Hamas couldn’t care a less about them. It will let nothing stand in its way of trying to achieve the unachievable, its charter’s demand to destroy the sovereign State of Israel, a full member no less of the Unwanted Nobodies club. Question: why is Club Leader Wanky backing a terrorist organization against of one of his members?
