The agreement in which Israel continued to blockade the entire country? That's an act of War in itself.

Would you sit still if some country blockaded every port and border along the USA? Even if it was your beloved Israel doing the blockading?

Look, Israel-Palestine is like your good ol' marriage. Israel is the hubby, and Palestine is the slave (I mean wife).

When Israel wants sex, Palestine better be ready to go for hubby. But, if hubby is watching football and doesn't want sex right now, Palestine better not nag hubby about it.

Well, if they agreed to it, I guess they should try to live by it, eh?

Yes but there never was an agreement between the two parties. So what's your point?

I see a parallel between the plight of Palestinians and those in America who think government is evil and dangerous if they start to trample on their civil liberties/property. The difference is, in America, it is largely a fantasy, for Palestinians, it is the reality.

The OP was about a cease fire AGREEMENT. The week long cease fire was agreed by BOTH hamas and Israel:
International News - The New York Times
I bet anyone that more rockets will be fired in the coming days. I guess that cannot be changed...
Now, instead of addressing this (minor) technical issue, we start again spinning in circles: Palestinians have no rights, there is a blockade, etc..
But that is not the issue of the OP. When you make an agreement, you need to respect it. Otherwise don't sign.
Anyway, why don't we all (let Hamas fire their rockets, Israel punish them) and discuss more interesting topics...Maybe something with less the 1700 posts.
