On the eve of Israel‘s war-ending invasion of Hamas‘s Gaza stronghold in Rafah, the international media announced in unison that all of a sudden, Hamas agreed to a ceasefire. For two examples, here is the BBC with the announcement that Hamas “accepts” a ceasefire proposal and then MSNBC’s Ali Velshi with the details. See if you can spot the errors!

Aye, here’s the rub: Hamas is “accepting” a ceasefire deal that Israel — the country on the cusp of winning the war in question — is not offering and will never accept.
