Pussies at War?

As the self-exploding Hamas Granny continues to make an impression around the world, we need to ask ourselves this question; where have all the Palestinian men gone? Increasingly, the only time we see Palestinian militant men is when they are firing behind the burqas of their women or using the backs of their children for cover.

Islamic Jihad, the weakest member of the The Palestinian Terror Trinity (Fatah, Hamas & Islamic Jihad) has put forth a proposal of a temporary truce with Israel reports Ynet News, but there is one important caveat:
An Islamic Jihad member said late Thursday that Palestinian militant groups offered to stop firing rockets into Israel in exchange for a cessation of all attacks on the Gaza Strip and the occupied West Bank. Islamic Jihad leader Khader Habib said the main Palestinian factions including the governing Hamas group, the rival Fatah of President Mahmoud Abbas and other smaller groups reached the understanding while meeting Prime Minister Ismail Haniyeh.

“For the good of the national Palestinian interest ... There is a position supporting calm (a ceasefire) by stopping rocket fire in return for an end to the aggression against our people in Gaza and the West Bank,” Habib told Reuters.

Habib said a deal would only take effect after Israel agrees and actually ends military actions. The offer was limited only to rocket firing and did not include other forms of attacks by militants such as cross-border attacks and suicide bombings. It was the first time that all Palestinian factions and militant groups had agreed on a common proposal.

He added that Haniyeh would take the proposal to Abbas in their meeting later on Thursday in the hope that the president would then put it to Israel. “If the Israelis agree then the deal will be ratified by all parties. The implementation of the agreement will be pending on whether we will see an end to the aggression on the ground,” Habib said.
I find it fascinating that Islamic Jihad is willing to propose a cessation of rocket attacks on Israeli civilians for a cessation of the IDF hunting terrorists in the Gaza Strip. The IDF searches focus pre-dominantly on militant men in action and this proposal by Islamic Jihad would take the heat off the men, but IJ reserves the right to launch suicide bombings which we have seen increasingly become the domain of women and children. I have no idea what this all means, but what an incredibly strange and alien pathology these people possess.
