Israel-Hamas truce could strengthen Hamas
On June 18th, the St. Louis Post-Dispatch reported that Israel and Hamas reached a truce in and around the Gaza Strip. The government of Israel has agreed to this truce, based on the position that it is important to pursue every avenue that could lead to a non-violent solution, even if the truce may turn out to be fragile and short-lived, as has been the case with past cease fires signed by Hamas.
Israel withdrew all of its troops and civilians from the Gaza Strip in August 2005, with the expectation that withdrawal would bring peace to the region. Unfortunately, since the withdrawal, Gazan terrorists have fired over 8,000 rockets and mortar bombs at Israeli civilians, and many, including children, have been killed or seriously wounded.
The truce helps consolidate power for Hamas, a US-defined terrorist organization committed to Israel’s destruction, over the more moderate Fatah party, led by Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas. Hamas and al-Qaeda are both military arms of a Salafist, monastic order called “The Muslim Brotherhood,” which views Islam as the world’s only legitimate religion and is committed to using violence to achieve systematic domination of the earth.
Israel will monitor implementation of the truce and will not take any offensive action against Palestinians in Gaza unless the agreement is violated.
The Jewish community of St. Louis prays for an end to the violence and peaceful coexistence for everyone in the region.

Don’t forget that Hamas has endorsed The Obamamessiah. The Obamamessiah has also been endorsed by JI (the Phillpine branch of al-qaeda), Chavez, castro, Kim Jong Il, Ahmadninutjob, and Gadaffi. Every terrorist in the world is head-over-heels in love with the The Supreme Perfect Obamamessiah. I wonder why?
