The Hamas terrorists have already violated the cease fire that went into effect, by firing at least one missile into southern Israel early Sunday
The Israeli Prime Minister's Office has responded favorably to PA Chairman Mahmoud Abbas offer for a cease fire. Abbas was informed by Hamas of the decision and passed the word to PM Ehud Olmert who confirmed that all the Palestinian terrorist groups led by Hamas agreed to stop firing missile attacks and using suicide bombers.
The Palestinian step is conditional on Israel halting military operations, liquidations and demolitions.
DEBKAfile’s military sources report: Hamas and its allied terrorist groups have been feeling intense heat from successful pinpointed IDF operations taking place in the last week against Qassam missile squads and commanders in the northern Gaza Strip. The terrorists are also worried by the possibility of the former chief of staff Ehud Barak taking over in defense.

Maybe things are stopped for the moment but it isn't likely that both parties will keep peace. Don't count on it.

There won't be peace until the Palestinians get their land back.
