    "When did Hamas break the cease-fire? (...and why?)"

    Here's your answer:
    http://www.reuters.com/article/newsOne/idUKTRE4BS1...

    June 19 - A truce begins between Hamas and Israel. It calls for Hamas to stop cross-border rocket fire and for Israel to gradually ease its embargo on Gaza. Aug 2 - Factional fighting kills three Hamas policemen and six pro-Fatah gunmen in the Gaza Strip in the worst fighting since June 2007.

    November 5 - Hamas fires dozens of rockets at Israel after Israeli forces kill six Palestinian militants in an eruption of violence that has disrupted the four-month-old truce.

    December 14 - Hamas leader Khaled Meshaal is quoted as saying the group will not renew the six-month-old truce with Israel.

    It never broke the truce. It simply did not renew the truce because Israeli forces crossed into Gaza (as they always do) to assassinate people it wanted to kill.

      Bad Israel! Bad, bad Israel!

      How dare they interrupt negotiations to take out terrorists tunneling toward an Israeli checkpoint?

      THE NERVE!!!

        They broke the truce. They killed people. It's entirely possible the Palestinians were terrorists. What it comes down to, however, is that Israel launched an attack across the border and then Hamas decided if Israel's going to ignore the truce and launch attacks there was no reason for them to consider renewing the truce.

        But if you really want, you can keep pretending that it was Hamas that broke the truce.
