Jeremy Bowen gave it both barrels to Israel this morning in radio 4, even questioning Israel's good faith going into the deal.

Did he also question the terrorist's good faith or is that too much to ask? (and with terrorist i mean Hamas, palestinian Jihad and similar groups)

The reason behind questioning Israel's "good faith" is that several Israeli MPs who are currently in Government are quitting and have stated that if the 2nd phase happens rather than a return to war then they will use their balance of power to bring the Government down and history has demonstrated that Netanyahu will do anything to stay in power.

ie with regard to this agreement there have been no signs of possible bad faith from Hamas whereas there have been from Israel.

Going into an agreement with the intent of not fulfilling that agreement is not good faith.

The entire history of Israel's behaviour in the so-called peace process for 30 years has been in bad faith.

Israel has held all the cards for decades and it has paid lip service to peace efforts in order not to appear the pariah terrorist state that it actually is.

The last 15 months has not been 'war', it has been terrorism against a civilian population.
