#1 israel has acted - freeing prisoners, and demolishing an outpost - and had suspended curfews until this last attack.

Now its time for Abbas to act.

I understand why Abbas would prefer a Hamas ceasefire over taking them on. But I have not yet heard from Abbas or anyone else what incentive Hamas has for a ceasefire. No carrot - if peace goes forward, they become less relevant. No stick - Abbas doesnt appear to be threatening them with anything.
