Israel, Hamas and Egypt agree informally to ceasefire and end of Gaza siege

I really hope Debtka is wrong. Because if this is how Israel responds to Terrorist killing kids studying torah and send missiles into civilian populations then Israel is in trouble.

Exclusive: Israel, Hamas and Egypt agree informally to ceasefire and end of Gaza siege: “

Despite Israeli and Hamas denials of an accord, DEBKAfile’s Middle East sources report that the Egyptian intelligence minister Gen. Omar Suleiman has brokered an informal ceasefire and obtained Israel’s non-rejection of a reopened Rafah crossing from Gaza to Sinai. The calm on the Gaza-Israel border went into its third day Monday, March 11.

Prime minister Ehud Olmert and Ehud Barak, when they denied secret talks with Hamas were technically correct. And since no documents were formally negotiated or signed, the arrangement can be repudiated at any time.

  1. Israel’s restraint will only serve to embolden the Islamomaniacs.
