Yet more Reuters bias:*

Israel dismissed on Friday a Hamas proposal for a six-month Gaza Strip truce during which an embargo on the territory would be lifted, saying the Palestinian Islamists wanted to prepare for more fighting rather than peace.

I think the implication of * the message our friend at Reuters is trying to convey through the picture and caption is clear – Hamas really do want a short-term peace with Israel, and are even willing to cease the anti-Israel incitement. But, alas, it is Israel dismissing Hamas’ genuine peace overtures.
U-huh.
* wording changed due to misunderstanding that I was endorsing the message of the picture and caption
