Israel keeps Gaza crossings shut

Israel keeps Gaza crossings shut

JERUSALEM (AP) — Israel refused on Friday to fully open crossings with the Gaza Strip and Palestinian militants attacked Israel with mortars, further testing an already fragile truce.


This doesn't sound like the strongest truce in the world to me. It seems like Palestinian militants don't understand that a truce means an end to combat. That means working to stop your side from attacking the other, not just putting down your weapons and allowing others to fight for you. A truce of this nature is an empty truce, most of all against a united enemy, that when it makes a truce, stops all attacks.
