* SkyNews.com brings us this report today and it starts off like this... Israel says all its soldiers have now been pulled out of Gaza... They have not gone far. Much of its heavy armour remains massed on the border and Israel says it may send them back in again if Hamas resumes its rocket fire... Soldiers have told Sky News Online they have been kept on combat readiness for 30 days. That order extends even to troops' communications with families... "We are not allowed to see our wives or girlfriends," said one infantryman. "We can only phone them so we stay focused."... Israel announced its unilateral ceasefire on Saturday night and Hamas followed suit the next day... Hamas issued Israel with demands to withdraw troops in a week and open Gaza's border crossings...

Gaza: Israeli Army 'Combat Ready'

* PressTV.ir has this report today and it goes like this... Thousands of Palestinians stage a massive rally in the Gaza Strip to celebrate the Hamas government's dramatic victory over Israel... The people of Gaza poured to the streets to celebrate the resistance that their democratically-elected government displayed during a 22-day war with Israel and its heavily armed military... The demonstrators celebrated by waving Hamas flags and shouting slogans in support of the movement, as the Israel army said that it had withdrawn all its forces from the coastal region... On Monday, senior Hamas leader Ismail Haniya said Israeli offensive into Gaza was a failure for Tel Aviv and a victory for Palestinians, who were able to withstand the Israeli onslaught... God has granted us a great victory, not for one faction, or party, or area, but for our entire people… Despite all the wounds, our people didn't surrender, but demonstrated a legendary perseverance," he said in a televised message... Similar celebrations were also held in Iran on Tuesday and Wednesday as people took to the streets to express their joy over the success of the Palestinian resistance...
