Arrr mateys! Gather ‘round as I spin ye a yarn of a parley that went asunder on a fine Sunday mornin’ in Cairo’s sands! The scallywags known as Hamas and Israel be at odds, refusin’ to shake hands on a truce, despite the best efforts of some meddlin’ mediators. ‘Twas like tryin’ to teach a barnacle to dance—no chance, I tell ye! The whispers from two Egyptian landlubbers told me that the ship of peace be takin’ on water, and hopes be sinkin' fast in this tumultuous sea of conflict.

But lo and behold! As the talks floundered, Hamas be launchin’ a fearsome long-range cannonball from the depths of Khan Younis, aimed straight at the heart of central Israel! The sirens wailed like a banshee in Rishon Lezion, causin’ the good folk to scatter like chickens on a hot griddle. Aye, it be clear that while the talk be cheap, the ammunition be plenty!
