Scenes From the Palestinian Liberation CVI

I wanted to wait a few hours before congratulating the Palestinians on their latest ceasefire, just to make sure it held. But I gotta give it up to them. Prisoners released, hostilities ceased—everything’s copacetic now.

You guys made a believer out of—what’s that? They what?

Palestinian medical sources on Tuesday stated that a Palestinian citizen, 35 year old Hassan Al-Jumasi, was killed after unidentified gunmen opened fire at him in the southern Gaza Strip city of Khan Younis.

Palestinian security sources reported that the man is an operative of the Al-Qassam Brigades, the armed wing of the Hamas movement. He also worked as a lieutenant in the Palestinian navy.

Al-Jumasi was killed by gunmen from the family of one of the victims of Monday’s clashes. This is the first instance of violence since the ceasefire agreement between Fatah and Hamas was announced early on Tuesday.

Okay, you get one. Margin of error.
