Now that Barack Obama is the president-elect, a new wave of peace and tolerance is spreading across the world.

Oh, wait: New rocket barrage tests shaky Israel-Hamas truce.

GAZA CITY, Gaza Strip – Gaza militants fired a new barrage of rockets and mortars at Israeli border areas on Thursday, prompting Israel to bar planned food and fuel shipments to Palestinian civilians hurt by the unraveling of a five-month-old truce.

Israel had planned to let in 30 trucks of food aid to replenish dwindling warehouse stocks. It also had agreed to let in fuel to power Gaza’s only electrical plant.

But Palestinian militants fired five rockets and two mortars at southern Israel early Thursday, and Israeli security officials said the border crossings would remain shut.
