Thus, per that article, an agreement EXISTED.

Bloody hell , you base your whole position on a newspaper article .

#1 Israel isn't going to negotiate with terrorists directly, so everyone sitting down and having a nice chat, tea and crumpets to figure out the wording of an agreement just ain't going to happen. Nor did it.

Errrr... thats why they use intermediaries , you know other people to try and broker deal between themselves and other parties .

#2 Hamas is not a government, thus they have no recognized diplomat authorized to sign any such agreement if it existed. They are a terrorist organization, and thus have no interest in signing a document that - as the above noted - they had no interest in complying with.

Hamas is the elected government , the elected governement is recognised with certain powers for the purposes of negotiation and international representation(plus internal matters) .

#3 Egypt acted as a go between and got both sides to agree to stop shooting and killing each other. Egypt stated clearly that both sides agreed to the ceasefire, and neither side disputed it. In fact, again, had you read the links I posted, a leader of Hamas first "embraced" the ceasefire. A week later he was inciting its violation. This further proved the point I was making - you can't trust terrorists to abide by any agreement.

Just so wrong , Israel made no agreement and did not agree to the terms Hamas put forward through Egypt . That is why there was no ceasfire agreement , just unilateral decalarations . Its kinda like the current situation where there are two ceasefires decalred , both unilateral declarations .
And in ongoing negotiations to attempt an agreed ceasfire between both parties Egypt complains it is getting stabbed in the back by Israel every time they make any progress and Israeli negotitors are having to resign because they complain that their own government changes all the proposed terms any time they get close to achieving a deal .
And as for proving the point about dealing with terrorists to get them to abide by a deal , the last century gives hundreds of examples that prove you ignorant of facts . A prime example would be once again the usual outrage in the German media with the early release of yet another RAF terrorist , that is part of the deal the German government made with the terrorists , early release in exchange for stopping killing people .
Hey Stealth Hunter , those passages that were used to "prove" that the heliocentric theory was contrary to Holy Scripture , would they be from the bible or some other Holy Scripture ?
