1. Hamas is like the Nazis. I am sure that Rudolf Hess was more pragmatic than Adolf Hitler, but both needed to be defeated through force, not appeased.

 2. Adam Lebor proposses to split Hamas. Why is that different from splitting the Palestinian movement in two (between Fatah and Hamas) that it is being tried right now? This other solution has the benefit of

a. Fatah doesn't believe in Jewish conspiracies.

b. You don't weaken Fatah by supporting the presence of the lunatics of Hamas.

c. You can always try splitting Hamas later if this fails.

3. The IRA never wanted the destruction of England, like Hamas wants of Israel. You forget that. You always forget that. Therefore you reach absurd conclusions and present nonsense propossals. You always forget that.

4.  I have a better propossal to make: lets send Adam Lebor to Gaza to try to reason with Hamas's "moderates". No loss for Israel in that.
