Your timeline is right only if you want to ignore the almost daily rockets that are fired in Israel from Gaza. Cf
en.wikipedia.org

It is true that the rocket attacks and the Israeli bombings have become more frequent since the murders of the three Israelis. In addition, several tunnels coming out of Gaza have been blown up by Israel over the past few months as well. One tunnel was blown up with some Hamas members in it:

Here is a story from March about rockets from Gaza and the Israeli response:

People in the West get a tiny fraction of the story of what is going on over there.

Discussions of the Israeli-Arab dispute over the land formerly known as Palestine are almost all absurd. Everyone has their starting point and their "favorite" photographs or anecdotes that shows the barbarism and the brutality of the people that they oppose, and they lean on those, "See! Hah!" Whoopee.

It is all just self righteous BS, said to "prove" how "good" whoever is saying/writing it is. Almost none of the people speaking actually have any stake in what is happening, it is all just hot air.
