‘Ceasefire by Tuesday Night’
‘Ceasefire by Tuesday Night’ – Defense/Security – News – Israel National News.
Sources in Israel, Egypt, Gaza say ceasefire will be declared within hours.
Sources in Israel, Egypt and Gaza have said that a ceasefire will be declared in Gaza and Israel within hours. Meanwhile, the IDF’s deployment and actions appear to signal an imminent ground assault into Gaza.
Israeli sources said the ceasefire will be declared Tuesday night during a visit from United States Secretary of State Hillary Clinton. The ceasefire deal will be enforced by the U.S. as well as Egypt and Israel, they said.
German Chancellor Angela Merkel and Foreign Minister Guido Westerwelle were involved in negotiations, they added.
Meanwhile, Egyptian President Mohammed Morsi told state media that Israeli “aggression” in Gaza would end Tuesday.
“The farce of the Israeli aggression will end today, Tuesday, and the efforts to reach a ceasefire between the Palestinians and Israelis will produce positive results within a few hours,” the AFP news agency reported Morsi as saying.
A Hamas official backed his words, saying, “It’s no secret we’re on the verge of an agreement.” Hamas is demanding that Israel completely lift its blockade of Gaza, he stated. Israel has opened its crossings into Gaza for the transfer of goods, but continues to impose a naval blockade on the region under agreements with the Palestinian Authority.
The Islamic Jihad terrorist group also said a ceasefire would go into effect by Tuesday evening.
For the time being, the IDF continues to gather reservists outside Gaza and to hit terrorist targets in the region, and Hamas continues to fire on Israeli civilians. The statements and leaks regarding a possible ceasefire could turn out to be intentional disinformation.

This round is over. Hamas was decapitated and their long range missiles are terminated. In the case of an israeli operation in Iran, Hamas is no longer a factor. This is the real achievement of the operation Pilar of Fire in Gaza. The israeli Air Force executions were also impeccable and count as a strong run before better and bigger things. Beautiful strategic conception from Bibi & Barak.

I figured three whole U.S. Navy ships were not hanging out there for the purpose of bringing out evacuated U.S. citizens. Israel is just not that huge.

Hello, Steve. I’ll try to answer to your precedent question, if I may.
Iran will have a hard time for getting Hezbollah being involved in their counter-attack against Israel, should an israeli operation in Iran taking place in the near future. After the swift execution of their Gaza comrades, Hezbollah will think twice before they will throw themselves into the abyss. As a bottom line, I dont think Hezbollah will commit suicide this time for the sake of the iranians.

Yeah not to mention that Nassrallah probably got wind of the fact that we’ve got some nice new bunker busters to warm his turban with.

Thanks Luis. I suspected this may the case.

Heavy bombardement of northern Gaza from the air, the sea and from the ground. As I read on one of the reports, all the IDF ”orchestra is playing now in Gaza.”

We are talking here important and sometimes emotional issues and the majority of us are close supporters of Israel and the jewish people. But there are many others out here that are writing vitriolic articles and I found one :http://www.guardian.co.uk/commentisfree/2012/nov/20/palestinians-have-right-defend-themselves
I googled a wiki about the author and I became more worried by this scourge.

It spreeds Luis, the incompetence spreads. They are blinded by the media campaigns of the arabic world. Read this: http://www.guardian.co.uk/commentisfree/2012/nov/18/we-in-gaza-right-to-defend .. name should say all: Musa Abumarzuq (political Hamas). Fact: the guirdian has Hamas integrated in its office. They are biggest terrorist supporters.

The rolling war against
Iran is picking up speed. Assad is nearly done, Hamas is bleeding profusely and the Israeli call up of 75,000 reservists is meant for Hezbollah. All this while the US is teeing up Iran.
