would support your claims but the reports seem unclear now if one side is calling for a truce to mediate but the other side just refuses. Why don't Israel talk to them and get concessions from Hamas to stop firing missiles in Israel? This is unclear? Isn't the point, to get them to cease firing on Israel? And if there is a violation, Israel can always continue the invasion.
