Hamas calls Israel liars
At a press conference in the Gaza Strip on Saturday, Hamas claimed Israel was lying about its having developed a rocket that could hit Tel Aviv as a pretext to starting another war in Gaza. "These claims are part of the Israeli lies to justify a new aggression on the Gaza Strip," Hamas spokesman Fawzi Barhoum was quoted as saying.Of course, when asked about the rockets, Hamas got all poker-faced.
"Such threats are coming under the title of incitement and creating pretexts in order to commit more new crimes against Gaza and cover up the previous crimes that were committed during the last war," Barhoum reportedly said, referring to Operation Cast Lead.
Meanwhile, Abu Obeida, a spokesman for Hamas' armed wing has said he could not confirm or deny that the group had test-fired a rocket, "since such news come from the occupation [Israel]."Of course.
"These threats are an evidence that the Israeli occupation had failed in its last war on Gaza to achieve its goals," he said. "The occupation is trying to escape from the international condemnations by fabricating such lies."

They are innocent. Goldstone said so!
No wonder Hamas can get away with accusing Israel of lying. It has the world on its side.
What could go wrong indeed
