I am guessing Israel did not trust Hamas, what with the fact they kept attack Israel during the cease fire and before the blockade. A lasting cease fire needs to both assure no more rocket attacks (2,500 is stupid) and no more blockade.
My point is Hamas and Israel are equally to blame for the suffering in Gaza, and I don't like seeing Hamas role in all of this deminised for the sake of making Isreal seem worse.
