Reports coming out of the Palestinian Authority today say that the Hamas political leadership has ordered its military wing to halt all attacks against Israel, a move apparently aimed at forming the upcoming Palestinian unity government.
Israel insisted that they were “unaware” of any such moves, but reports have been emerging over the past few weeks that the group is looking to transform itself into a non-violent movement, inspired by the success of the Arab Spring revolutions.
Israel has been railing at the idea of Palestinian unity, and insisting that they will withdraw from all peace talks (not that there have been any) if Fatah has a rapprochement with Hamas. The move would be more difficult to justify, however, if Hamas manages to transition toward non-violence.
The prospect speaks to a strategy that the Israeli military has feared for quite some time, as military planners have warned that they don’t believe they could crush an Arab Spring style popular uprising.
You can bet that, even as we speak, Wall Street and The White House have ordered Bibi and Da Boyz to figure out how to launch a black-flag op that can be/will be undeniably linked to Hamas.
Their deadline: before an Arab Spring comes to East Jerusalem, Gaza, and the West Bank.
Their problem: the Mossad is starting to see thru the BS. See:

FORCE — A BRAINPOWER DICTATORSHIP
Now there are fast thinkers who go for fast and aggressive action and always win the argument when things get forceful and deadly. For ability to kill is the speed at which you can rationalize a problem and take corrective action.
The there are groups like Hamas and the Occupy movement, the slow and careful thought type thinkers. For morality is the slowness at which you carefully rationalize a problem and take no greedy or stupid action.
Only YOU, John Ellis, could figure out a way to use Hamas and Occupy in the same sentence as equal examples of Anything, Only you.
And only You could ccharacterize the Occupy movement as an example of "slow and careful thought type thinkers." Those people have demonstrated their inability to be able to think their way out of a paper bag.
Stick with Hamas.
