Really serious weaponry, Captain. It almost looks like 13th-century Chinese technology.

They declared that they would stop firing rockets.
Why do you assume that Palestine is incapable even of comprehending the concept of peace with Israel?
"[I]f there are attacks . . . there will be a response." Are you surprised that Hamas's statement "we will stop rockets barring Israel bombing" wasn't "we will stop rocket launches no matter what Israel does"?

This is not a ceasefire, this is a Huddnah. This term means a breaking time to RE - ARM yourself.
The technology is the same basically. I would advise Israel to bomb back Hamas to the middle ages, but they are there already. So let me advise IAF to bomb them back to the stone age, where they could produce only dongs.

Destroying civilian structures is not the same as killing civilians on purpose.

The technology is totally different, however, they are the same sort of heavily armored mobile units indeed.
If you compare either Qassams or 13th-century early Chinese rockets to an F-15 warplane, then they represent almost the same kind of level of technology. However, if I compare the guys with Qassams to the Chinese soldier with the early rocket I can see more similarities than there are between a mounted knight of the middle ages and a 20th-century tank. Those Qassams work almost the same way as early Chinese rockets did.
I have never seen this explanation for the word.
Furthermore, why would you be surprised at all to find out that a militant group rearms
Perhaps because they are actually on that one side?
or perhaps because they found the statements that the IDF is targeting civilian targets and is using "chimical weapons" as not true.
chimical weapons is a horrible tool which the IDF literaly didn't use. i saw chimical weapons with its meanings in vietnam; not in gaza.
White phosphorus isn't a chemical weapon?
