JERUSALEM, Israel – The series of Israel Defense Forces air strikes on Gaza Tuesday represents a major change from the past two months when Phase One of a ceasefire deal between Israel and Hamas produced relative quiet as the two sides exchanged Israeli hostages –living and dead – for more than a thousand Palestinian prisoners, many who had murdered Israelis in terrorist attacks.
