Egypt to Hamas: Sign truce or risk collapse of Gaza regime
Egypt has been exerting fierce pressure on Hamas over the past 24 hours to accept its ceasefire proposal, Palestinian sources told Ynet Sunday night.

According to the sources, Cairo warned Hamas that should it refuse to accept the proposal the IDF would continue to expand its operation in Gaza, which in effect would mean an end to Hamas' rule over the coastal enclave it took over in June 2007.

Comments along these lines were made here yesterday. First time I have seen them in any media.
