Hamas' real motivations
Contrary to what the western media is telling you, Hamas has not stepped up the rocket and other terror attacks because they're trying to stop a nascent 'peace process' between Israel and the 'Palestinians.' Evelyn Gordon has their motivation down pat (Hat Tip: The Corner). So what really motivates Hamas? It’s no secret; Hamas officials proclaim it repeatedly: their goal is Israel’s eradication, and their method is armed struggle. Therefore, they will attack whenever and wherever it’s feasible.Read the whole thing - she's got it all explained.
Viewed through this prism, the pattern of Hamas’s terror activity is easily explained: terror escalates whenever Hamas officials think they can get away with it and de-escalates when the danger of a devastating Israeli response becomes too great.
