I think it's more the case that neither side is prepared to back down as they would lose face or it would be perceived as a sign of weakness.

If Hamas keep launching rockets, Israel will keep up the air strikes and invasion.

The fresh worry for Palestinans is that when this is all over, Israel may well feel that Palestinians cannot be left to their own devices and decide that they need to to re-occupy Gaza. In that way they can keep an eye out for tunnels into Egypt and destroy them immediately. They can also deal with militants far more quickly.

If that happens life in Gaza will become that bit harder.
