Hamas urges militants to ready for confrontation

[Gimel]

GAZA - Palestinian militant group Hamas on Monday voiced impatience with what it called Israeli violations of terms it set for a three-month ceasefire and called on all militant groups to be ready for confrontation with Israel.

The groups pinned the truce's success on Israel's release of all 6,000 Palestinian prisoners in its jails and a halt to the killing of militants.

Israel has said it will free some 440 prisoners later this week. The Palestinians say this is insufficient.

"We appeal to all the national and Islamic forces to prepare themselves for a confrontation of the arrogance of that criminal
enemy that denied the right of freedom for our hero prisoners," said the Hamas statement.

In other words: "Do what we say.
Our way or we'll attack." This is the cause of the ceasefire failure, not Sharon or the settlements.

1. Come blow your horn start celebrating right this way your table's waiting

"Our patience regarding the
Zionists' breaches (of the
truce) will not last long," the
statement said. "Our
maintaining the ceasefire does
not mean that we will allow
those terrorists and killers to
commit attacks against our
people."

I use to have this girlfriend known as Elsie
with whom I shared two sordid rooms in chelsea
she wasn't what you call a blushing flower
as a matter of fact she rented by the hour...

2. I suppose you're right

Their patience has run out. Hamas the brave. Uggh!

They'd send a lad, still coyly smiling,
Proud to bear the banner of his tribe.

They'd flash his name around the world,
Let not a barrier forestall the jihadi,

He'll marry a bride for entry free,
The detonate for eternity.

3. I think of Elsie to this very day. I remember how she'd turn to me and say

put down the knitting
the book and the broom
It's time for a holiday.

LIFE is a cabaret OLD FRIEND come see the CA-BAR-ET!

Other people's projections are always amusing. I take requests too!

6. Sorry I don't know that song, but

if you hum a few bars, I might be able to wing it.

Relate to the article? What's to relate? It's not all that startling really. Is it? Perhaps we should wait and hear from others.
