The operation began in the midst of celebrating the Jewish holiday of Hanukkah; the name "Cast Lead" (עופרת יצוקה, Hebrew pronunciation: [ofeʁet jetsuka]) is a famous phrase from Israel's national poet Hayim Nahman Bialik's popular Hebrew children's song "Likhvod haḤanukkah" (לכבוד החנוכה). In the song (see article in the Hebrew Wikipedia), the child narrator is given a dreidel made of cast lead. See "Operation Cast Lead" in: Gavriely-Nuri, Dalia (2013).

Amery, Arab Water Security: Threats and Opportunities in the Gulf States, Cambridge University Press, 2015 pp. 73–74:'Between 2006 and the middle of 2010, Israel imposed a strict blockade against Palestinians living in the Gaza Strip. Gisha, an Israeli advocacy group, described the blockade as tantamount to "economic warfare" and collective punishment against the 1-5 million residents of Gaza. Israeli documents reveal that during that period its military "made precise calculations of Gaza's caloric needs to avoid malnutrition", and sought to "keep Gaza's economy on the brink of collapse". For the Israeli army, the purpose of the blockade was to weaken Hamas, its archenemy. Israeli calibrated its economic siege of Palestinian territory by withholding a lot of the food supply, which caused real suffering yet allowed enough food through so as not to cause a dire economic crisis that might generate images of "hungry children". Dov Weissglass, an advisor to the Israeli prime minister Ariel Sharon, joked: 'It's like a meeting with a dietician. We have to make them (Palestinians) much thinner, but not enough to die."'

'In June 2008, Egypt brokered a six-month ceasefire. Israel increased the severity of its blockade of Gaza during the ceasefire, drastically restricting the entry of supplies necessary for daily living and preventing exports from leaving the Strip. The exchange of rockets launched and retaliatory aerial assaults increased late in 2008 with Hamas and Israel blaming each other for a breakdown in the ceasefire. The evidence suggests Israel broke the ceasefire with a raid into the Gaza Strip that killed six Hamas men on 4 November – the night of the presidential election in the USA.'Ian Bickerton The Arab-Israeli Conflict: A Guide for the Perplexed, A&C Black 2012 p. 238.

Retrieved 24 March 2020. After two months in which few incidents were reported, the ceasefire began to founder on 4 November 2008 following an incursion by Israeli soldiers into the Gaza Strip, which Israel stated was to close a cross-border tunnel that in Israel's view was intended to be used by Palestinian fighters to kidnap Israeli soldiers.

The fundamental motives behind the latest Israeli attack on Gaza lie elsewhere: (1) in the need to restore Israel's "deterrence capacity," and (2) in the threat posed by a new Palestinian "peace offensive. ... Israel's "larger concern" in the current offensive, New York Times Middle East correspondent Ethan Bronner reported, quoting Israeli sources, was to "re-establish Israeli deterrence," because "its enemies are less afraid of it than they once were, or should be." Preserving its deterrence capacity has always loomed large in Israeli strategic doctrine. ... It is impossible to claim that those who decided to blow up the tunnel were simply being thoughtless. The military establishment was aware of the immediate implications of the measure, as well as of the fact that the policy of "controlled entry" into a narrow area of the Strip leads to the same place: an end to the lull. That is policy—not a tactical decision by a commander on the ground"

"The Six Months of the Lull Arrangement", Intelligence and Terrorism Information Center December 2008: 'A period of relative quiet between 19 June and 4 November: As of 19 June, there was a marked reduction in the extent of attacks on the western Negev population. The lull was sporadically violated by rocket and mortar shell fire, carried out by rogue terrorist organizations, in some instances in defiance of Hamas (especially by Fatah and Al-Qaeda supporters). Hamas was careful to maintain the ceasefire.... The escalation and erosion of the lull arrangement, 4 November to the time of this writing, December 172: On 4 November the IDF carried out a military action close to the border security fence on the Gazan side to prevent an abduction planned by Hamas, which had dug a tunnel under the fence to that purpose. Seven Hamas terrorist operatives were killed during the action. In retaliation, Hamas and the other terrorist organizations attacked Israel with a massive barrage of rockets.... During the second period a new dynamic was created which replaced the former relative calm: Hamas and the other terrorist organizations extended their attacks (rocket and mortar shell fire, IEDs and light-arms fire), the IDF operated to prevent attacks within the Gaza Strip (Israeli Air Force attacks, firing at terrorist squads within the Gaza Strip near the border), the terrorist organizations responded with barrages of rocket and mortar shell fire to retaliate for their losses and continued daily sporadic fire, in response to which Israel closed the border crossings, exerting pressure on Hamas and the Gaza Strip residents.... With the escalation in rocket and mortar shell attacks which began on 4 November, Israel began closing the crossings for longer periods. That led to shortages of basic goods in the Gaza Strip and to disruptions in the supply of various types of fuel (although electrical power was not cut off, since the plant in Ashqelon, which supplies 65% of the Gaza Strip's electricity, provided an uninterrupted flow of power).'

The operation began in the midst of celebrating the Jewish holiday of Hanukkah; the name "Cast Lead" (עופרת יצוקה, Hebrew pronunciation: [ofeʁet jetsuka]) is a famous phrase from Israel's national poet Hayim Nahman Bialik's popular Hebrew children's song "Likhvod haḤanukkah" (לכבוד החנוכה). In the song (see article in the Hebrew Wikipedia), the child narrator is given a dreidel made of cast lead. See "Operation Cast Lead" in: Gavriely-Nuri, Dalia (2013).
