Didn't He Actually Read The Story?

Check out the subheadline in this story:

Action may mark end of 5-month truce

One would think that there had been no hostilities whatsoever prior to this attack, that it was just those bloodthirsty Jews ending the truce by lobbing rockets at innocent Palestinians. You know, just restarting that ol' cycle of violence?

But the article itself says:

The military wing of Hamas, known formally as the Islamic Resistance Movement, has fired more than 100 mortar shells and rockets into Israel and Jewish settlements in Gaza in recent days, one of which killed a 22-year-old Israeli woman Thursday.

I just can't imagine how the mind of a copy editor works who could come up with such a headline.

Nay Rand. We should be ecstatic that these people of integrity are there to determine when these sorts of things might have ended maybe.
