As usual, the coverage of this has been quite lacking. Nothing on CTV's website and very little on CBC. BBC repeatedly mentions US condemnation of the "cowardly" nature of the rockets; I guess sitting in a comfy bunker piloting a remote control plane and dropping bombs is the work of heroes.

Ban Ki Moon takes this brave stance that the rockets must stop, but Israel may continue as long as they don't overdo it. (UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon expressed grave concern over the flare-up in violence, describing rocket attacks on Israeli civilians as "unacceptable" and urging Israel to "exercise maximum restraint".)

Furthermore, as usual, the "truce" or "ceasefire" is completely one-sided; Israel reserves the right to kill anyone regardless of any agreement.

BBC: Israel launches fresh air strikes on Gaza, Israel and Gaza militants agree truce after clashes
Guardian: At least 15 killed in Israeli air strikes on Gaza, Gaza air strikes kill 18 Palestinians,Gaza air strikes kill 20 Palestinians, Israeli air strikes kill three in Gaza, Gaza violence: 'we don't want to escalate but maybe we have no choice', Israel and Gaza militants agree to ceasefire after clashes

As the link previous was 'pulled*', here is a bit of text that it contained that they can't 'pull'
On 15/11/2012 some anti-war organizations held anti-war demonstration in Tel Aviv against the latest massacre in Gaza. this is some footage from the counter demonstration.
The man giving a speech in this video is Michael Ben Ari, an Israeli Knesset member.
Here is another link showing some of Israel's possible Leaders, which according to The Daily Beast's Emily Hauser, these Israeli students spontaneously broke into chants of "Death to Arabs" after singing the national anthem. She points out that this is at Haifa University, where there is a relatively large body of Palestinian students.
