Israelis don't violate ceasefires; Palestinians do

According to an article written by Haaretz:

The ceasefire between Israel and Palestinian militants was violated yesterday, when Palestinians fired over 30 Qassams at Israeli cities in response to an incursion the previous day by Israel Defense Forces troops into the Gaza Strip that left six Hamas militants dead.

Apparently the ceasefire between Hamas and Israel allows Israel the ability to operate incursions into Gaza, meaning the incursion yesterday was not in violation of the ceasefire. However, when Palestinians respond to the incursion (in which 6 people were murdered), THEY violated the ceasefire.

apparently the definition of a ceasefire is when Palestinians don't use violence, and NOTHING else.

    So basically, you're saying that "Haaretz", an Israeli newspaper (if I'm not mistaken), is biaised? Anyways, since when what does the media write have the weight of international law?

    exactly. When Israel goes on the offensive its "in response" to something Palestinians did. When Palestinians do anything its terrorism.

    If you read the BBC reports they also always follow the same line. Total bias.
