GAZA CITY, Gaza — The militant group that rules the Gaza Strip asked for a cease-fire hours after Israel resumed attacks on the enclave. An Israeli army spokesman Lt. Col. Peter Lerner did not say if Israel would hold fire during, adding that troops would continue demolishing militant tunnels.
And during an appearance on NBC's Meet The Press, Israel's Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said that Hamas had not kept to any ceasefire agreement.
"We’ve accepted five ceasefires — Hamas has rejected every single one of them," he said.
Artillery fire and air strikes punctuated Israel's earlier announcement that it would resume fighting in Gaza, shattering a fragile peace that had allowed many Palestinians to search the rubble of their homes.

Every stinkin' on of them.
15yrs and older. Male and female.
Hunt them like rabid dogs in the street.
When the enemy is invited in, it is not infiltration it is treachery.
Netanyahu will hold firm as long as the Israelis and the cabinet keep pressing him to expand the operation and wipe out Hamas. If support dwindles, then in my opinion so will his backbone.
Fortunately, Israelis of all stripes, including the leftists in the government and even at Ha’aretz, the leftist newspaper in Israel, are openly contemptuous of John Kerry and his advocacy for Hamas and its sponsors Qatar and Turkey. Even Mahmoud Abbas, who many, if notost, Istaelis believe is a sub rosa enemy of Israel, is furious with US foreign policy at this point.
Must be they need to restock their missiles and ammo.
This is beginning to sound like the game we played as children?”You Hit Me First So I Owe You One,and So On”??The ONLY Thing that COUNTS is Who delivers The LAST BLOW!!!!!!!!!!!GOD Bless The State of Israel!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Why isn't the Obama Administration making checks out directly to North Korea for these arms? John Kerry could deliver the check to North Korea in person... all the democrat filth could cheer him on...
Hamas could just put down their weapons and surrender. They are being destroyed, have not won even 1 firefight. They have no chance of winning this battle that they started.
Or they can just keep fighting, hate takes away common sense. More will die but the writing is on the wall
Yes, no, maybe, whaaaa it’s someone else’s fault.
Enough already. Either poo or get off the pot. One or the other and end it.
How terrible. They didn’t get all their armaments restocked in time.
NBC is being ‘balanced again’ - three liberal elites: AYMAN MOHYELDIN, YAEL FACTOR AND PAUL ZIAD NASSAR
I know its a tiresome cliche but what the US media would do with these images if Obama were a republican.
Taking away their weapons and tunnels should do the trick just fine... the good guys don’t ‘eradicate’... that’s a leftist term.
What's next?
North Koreans refusing to sell missiles to Hamas if they deal with John Kerry? Maybe there's hope after all...
Underneath that bumper sticker should be: “Victory through superior firepower” with a picture of towelheads getting blown up.
Take out Hamas leadership, weapons and tunnels and the problem will be solved.
Apparently, that's what the UN is there for.
That will only work until the next wave of Kill-the-Jews holy warriors arrive on the scene. Then Israel will have to do it all over again, just as they have been doing since 1948.
Being a “Good Guy” is not defined by whether or not you “eradicate” your enemy. The common mistake made in the modern era is to place absurd restrictions upon our armed forces.
The enemy will use practically any method or tactic to win. While there may be a few lines it wouldn’t be prudent to “cross”, the ultimate objective should be to pulverize your adversary until they no longer have the will to fight, even if that means in the end you must eradicate your enemy.
To hold back while waging war is the height of folly, especially if you want to look like a “Good Guy”. We have handcuffed our warriors to the point that the enemy now knows they simply have to wait until we grow weary of war and pull back. Once that occurs, our enemy is free to recuperate and rearm.
