Interesting offer.

The IDF has put a serious crimp on Hamas' style. Hamas's suicide bombings have been all but stopped so now Hamas "offers" to quit?

What happens if the Israelis accept this generous offer and the Hamas' suicide bombings commence again?

What kind of parallel negotiating universe does Hamas inhabit? Does it always make demands out of a position of weakness?

I'd like to play poker with these guys, though they'd probably draw a Kalashnikov at the slightest provocation.

Call it "praying for that which was lost."
