    This is pretty jaw dropping even for the fraud.

    Israel-Gaza conflict: heavy rocket fire dashes hopes of imminent ceasefire

    Militants had halted fire for several hours on Thursday, in longest lull since attacks began 11 days ago


    "heavy rocket fire dashes hopes of imminent ceasefire" implies Hamas broke the ceasefire. Also, only "militants" had halted fire; again implying it was only them doig any firing. But then...

    However, the brief calm between 1am and 8am local time was broken when air-raid sirens sounded in Israel near the Gaza frontier, and Israel’s military said a fighter jet had struck a rocket launcher. Later, militants fired an anti-tank missile at an empty Israeli military bus near the frontier, lightly wounding a soldier.

    So in actuality the Israelis broke the cease fire but they try to imply, via the ever-present "air-raid sirens sounded", that Palestinians did and their headline is a complete lie. There is no mention of the "heavy rocket fire" in the rest of the article. Incredibly dishonest.
