The comments by Khalil al-Hayya came amid a stalemate in months of cease-fire talks. But it's unlikely Israel would consider such a scenario.

A top Hamas political official told The Associated Press the Islamic militant group is willing to agree to a truce of five years or more with Israel and that it would lay down its weapons and convert into a political party if an independent Palestinian state is established along pre-1967 borders.

    For Israel - maybe. I’m not sure it’s possible to drop such amounts of support and cooperation, likely with enormous volumes of defense-related corruption involved too. There’ll be assassinations to not allow that to happen.

    I’m just saying that in most cases of oppression over the world moderation without potential for violence will just get you imprisoned and possibly killed.
