    I would give it 50/50 chance Hamas breaks it. They don’t seem to understand their own game they are playing. They need international support on the side if Palestinians and the best way to do that would be to let the ceasefire happen and then bank on Israel just being Israel and continue to indiscriminately bomb.

      I also want to remind everyone that Hamas isn’t the only terror organisation down there. E.g. the hospital bombing accident was neither Israel nor Hamas, but Islamic Jihad. And there’s more of those small organisations. Even if Hamas agrees and gets a grip on all of their members and nobody walks out of line out of fantatism or on accident, then you still got these dozens of other terrorists. I don’t think Israel will care much that it wasn’t Hamas when another rocket barrages hits them during a ceasefire.

      And before we even get there - there’s a lot of if’s.

      Nevertheless, a solution needs to be found and trying this might be the next best thing.
