Quatar surely knows how to provide safe heaven to all the terrorists

Is nobody going to mention how refusing a temporary ceasefire (aka being genocided again after 6 weeks) is apparently "hardline"?
- Hamas loves committing massacres, that's why they want a "permanent" ceasefire.
This should have been done sooner, we've known since basically the beginning of this entire ordeal that the majority of the heads of Hamas relocated to Qatar.
Israel and it's allies could have easily made negotiations with Qatar to hand over the Hamas leaders and accomplished a ceasefire sooner using that as leverage, but instead, because Israel's government has ulterior motives with illegally settling Gaza, they basically erase the existence of the northern portion and have real estate companies advertising new developments on the seafront where Palestinian homes used to be.
- To be "fair" Hamas is a grassroots organization. It exists because there's popular will for it to exist, not because of one person or a few people. This does mean the Israeli Orphanization force is doing anything to curb Hamas, but it's not like Hamas needs its leaders to exist.
  
  You cannot kill an idea.
  You can only change it if you provide a better alternative, and Israel is trying really hard not to.
  
  Since Hamas is internationally recognized as a terrorist organization, are you implying that Palestinians support those views? I'd like to think most of them only want peace.
If Hamas in in Qatar, how is attacking Gaza going to wipe them out?
Unless of course wiping out Hamas was never the goal?
That'd be great. Next stop: the hague.
- Only if Netanyahu and his ilk go with them.
  
  Actually, yeah. I think both camps facing consequences would be the best outcome for this clusterfuck.
  
  Why?
  If we can only get one of them, shouldn’t we at least get one?
  I mean fuck Israel, and fuck hummus, but one is better than zero

This is the best summary I could come up with:
As far as the negotiation process goes, he revealed that the discussion of swaps of Israeli hostages for Palestinian prisoners has taken a back seat to relieving the humanitarian situation and ending the fighting.
Later on in the report, however, he revealed that Hamas met in Moscow with other Palestinian officials, including secular politicians and the PIJ, where they agreed to "expand operations in the West Bank and Jerusalem."
It said that unspecified Arab negotiators were aiming for an urgent two-day ceasefire before the beginning of Ramadan due to increased operations in Rafah.
Arab mediators have also confirmed, according to the report, that Hamas has refused to give Israel a list of living hostages as part of a deal.
He said many of the prisoners are held by other factions, including Palestinian Islamic Jihad, making them harder to locate and guarantee as part of a deal.
The report also talked about Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar, who recently broke his radio silence and has also made demands about a potential deal.
