The AP posted a rather strange article today entitled, “Palestinian cease-fire enters third day,” which stated that the “truce” between the terrorist groups Fatah and Hamas was holding, but not holding. A cease-fire obviously means no shooting, but there have been shootings nonetheless (?!?!):

Early Thursday, unknown gunmen opened fire at Fawzi Barhoum, a Hamas spokesman, as he drove with three bodyguards in his white sedan near Gaza City, according to an official Hamas announcement sent to reporters in Gaza. There were no casualties.

The announcement blamed “coup-seekers” — meaning militants from Fatah — which Hamas believes is trying to forcibly unseat the Hamas-led government.

But the incident — and another shooting Wednesday that critically wounded a Fatah man — didn’t unravel the cease-fire, declared early Tuesday by leaders of Fatah and Hamas. The truce is meant to bring an end to internal fighting that has left more than 60 Palestinians dead since early December.

Huh?
