Islamic Jihad threatens to 'resume' rocket fire

Islamic Jihad threatened on Saturday to 'resume' rocket fire against Israel unless the crossings to the Gaza Strip are reopened. The crossings have remained 'closed' all week due to rocket fire on Israel coming from the Strip. But Jihad has also threatened to 'resume' rocket fire if Israel continues military operations in Judea and Samaria, which is not even included in the 'truce.' Meanwhile, the soon-to-be 'good' terrorists from Hamas have threatened to lock up anyone who violates the 'truce.'
The threats came after a Palestinian teenager was killed in Hebron in the West Bank overnight as he threw petrol bombs at Israeli soldiers, the military said, putting further strain on the week-old ceasefire.

Mohammad al-Alami, 17, was shot in the face and body by Israeli soldiers who came under attack with stones and fire bombs during clashes in Beit Umar, near Hebron, in the south of the territory, Palestinian police said.

Islamist group Hamas, which has controlled the Gaza Strip since it routed forces loyal to Palestinian president Mahmud Abbas a year ago, said it had already arrested some militants for breaking the truce.
It seems that the children are joining in the 'fun.'
"There is an agreement between Islamic Jihad and Hamas stating that all people from Jihad or Hamas, who violate this accord will be arrested and their weapons confiscated," al-Zahar was quoted as saying in the Palestinian daily Al-Quds.

"People have already been arrested. Some opened fire on lorries and others fired rockets at the Nahal Oz (oil facility)," al-Zahar added.

He said that Hamas had even negotiated for some families to hand over their children to Hamas police for breaking the truce.
I can just imagine. Maybe if they didn't train them to be 'martyrs,' they wouldn't break the 'truce' in the first place.

And Israel has reopened the crossings and allowed in supplies. Without even gaining the release beforehand of Gilad Shalit. Hamas must find Israel the perfect patsy.
