The IDF spokesman reports that, having tired of firing missiles at Gaza and apparently grateful for the sympathetic response (crowds celebrating in the streets, candies handed out, guns fired into the art)of the local population when Jews were massacred in Jerusalem, the Israeli Army is now doing its shopping and home deliveries.
The spokesman's office announced that approximately 165 truckloads of humanitarian aid and supplies were transferred into the Gaza Strip today via the Kerem Shalom, Sufa and Karni Crossings. The assistance was organized by the Coordinator of Government Activities in the Territories. (Editor's Question: Is Gaza still part of the Territories?)
