Stardate 20011209.1523 (On Screen): Israel has received an offer of a cease fire ostensibly from Palestinian militants. I don't think they will accept and I don't think they should, for a number of reasons. The biggest is simply that this offer is not credible; there's no reason to believe that whoever sent it actually has the ability or willingness to stop the attacks on Israel. Also, Israel has nothing to gain from a limited term cease fire; what it needs is a binding and enforcable peace agreement. Last of all, the mere fact of this offer if it is genuine means that Israel is finally beginning to undermine the confidence of the opposition leadership. It's no time to hold back; that's when you push. (discuss)

And besides which, the Palestinians withdrew the offer.
