Hamas to end suicide bombings
According to Yihiyeh Musa, Hamas will give up its suicide bombing campaign, they say because Hamas has moved into a "new era", that does not require suicide attacks.

But the real reason is quite striking. Hamas is quickly running out of money, and will not have the means to either run the government, or plan any attacks. The European union says that unless Hamas renounces terror, and recognizes Israel's right to exist, all funding to the terrorist organization will be cut off.

What we see here is Hamas starting to crack under the pressure. Now, Hamas must back up its words with deeds. Call a halt to terror plans, recognize Israel, and sit down with Israel, and have serious, fruitful talks with them. Then, and only then, should Hamas receive any funds.

2. Let me know when they take their oath to destroy Israel out of their
charter. Then maybe I'll be a little excited. I don't trust Hamas any farther than I can throw 'em.

3. Neither will I
Hamas is a terror organization, and you don't trust them until they prove that they mean what they say. Israel will not their guard down.
