Hamas's apparent moderation was merely a tactical step in pursuit of its long-term military and non-moderate objectives.

Why Israel Can’t Make Peace With Hamas

Excerpt / Summary
I asked him the question I always ask of Hamas leaders: Could you agree to anything more than a tactical cease-fire with Israel? ... Mr. Rayyan answered the question as I thought he would, saying that a long-term cease-fire would be unnecessary, because it will not take long for the forces of Islam to eradicate Israel.
There is a fixed idea among some Israeli leaders that Hamas can be bombed into moderation. This is a false and dangerous notion. It is true that Hamas can be deterred militarily for a time, but tanks cannot defeat deeply felt belief.
The reverse is also true: Hamas cannot be cajoled into moderation. Neither position credits Hamas with sincerity, or seriousness.
