Another Ma’an News goodie:
Those who launched homemade projectiles at Sderot on Monday are “collaborators with Israel,” senior Hamas leader Mahmoud Zahhar told Sawt Al-Quds radio station on Tuesday morning.
Zahhar was referring to the homemade rocket that struck the Israeli border town on Monday afternoon, triggering Israeli Defense Minister Ehud Barak’s decision to lock down the Gaza Strip’s borders. The projectile caused no injuries or physical damage.
“With regards to firing projectiles, I think those who were behind it are traitors because all Palestinian factions agreed to the ceasefire, and those who did that have contacts with Israel who wants to use that as a pretext to exert pressure on the Palestinian people,” said Zahhar.
“The Israelis want to combine this issue with the prisoners swap, and we refused that from the beginning. However, the Israelis are trying to maintain this policy, and that is serious because once it continues, people might be pushed out of the ceasefire agreement.” Zahhar added.
It’s genius, isn’t it? We hire palestinians to fire rockets at our cities and put our citizens in harms way, just so we can then use this as an excuse to blame the palestinians for breaking the “ceasefire.” Which you all know we react to with overwhelming force.
I guess our insidious plans were as clear to Zahar as the nose on his face wart on his nose.
