MOSCOW (AP) - The Palestinian ambassador to Russia said Thursday that Hamas might reconsider its stance toward Israel in order to advance the interests of the Palestinian people, a Russian news agency reported.
Hamas "ties the question of recognizing Israel as a state with the necessity to end the occupation of the Palestinian territories," Ambassador Bakir Abdel Munem was quoted by the ITAR-Tass news agency as saying.
"At the same time, I think that Hamas may revise its stance in the interests of the entire Palestinian people."

SO if they do become more moderate Israel will have to deal with them. ANd if they don't you know who wants to continue this conflict.
