Gaza under attack

Gaza under attack
The direct cause of the exploding conflict between Israel and Hamas in the Gaza Strip was a series of attacks by Palestinian militants, including a missile fired at a jeep carrying Israeli soldiers inside Israel, and a rain of rockets against Israeli towns — more than 180 in the course of a few days. That was the view of western media and it may be right this time but why Hamas is breaking the de-escalation reached long time before withIsrael?!
Israel could not but respond, and when it did, it chose to deliver a really strategic blow: the assassination of Hamas’s military commander, Ahmed Jabari, and airstrikes against scores of sites where the Palestinians had stored a large arsenal of rockets and missiles, including Iranian-built models capable of hitting central Israel.
Hamas reacted with more rocket barrages, and by Thursday evening the two sides appeared on the brink of a ground war, barring an effective diplomatic intervention by Egypt and the United States. Though their rhetoric is belligerent, both sides ought to be hoping that the diplomats will save them from themselves.
So Hamas for unknown reason started the attack and Israel for well known past history of Jabri killed him. Egypt and US both do not want (hot Gaza) in this autumn. what about the next coming days in your analysis?!
