Back on December 25, 2008, Maan reported:
Hamas: 87 shells fired at Israeli targets in 24 hours
The military wing affiliated to Hamas, Al-Qassam Brigades released a statement on Thursday morning briefing the group's military activities over the first twenty four hours of an operation they called "Oil Stain" which started Wednesday morning.
As concluded:
On Thursday, December 24, 2009--3 days before Operation Cast Lead started--Hamas was already bombarding Israeli civilians with rockets and mortars.
Ddi the media miss that?
P.S.
The first blogger to post about Hamas's Operation Oil Stain was Elder of Ziyon--already on December 25 and December 27 2008.
