I disagree. It would be enough if Israel started making some concessions. Ideally retreating to what are legally their lands (UN partition plan). There will always be some extreme radicals in the world that want Israel gone alltogether, but after the hardships Palestinians had to endure over the past 60 years, I'd say such a solution would be acceptable to the majority of Palestinians.
According to Palestinian oppinion polls, the popularity of Hamas is not overwhelming, but it is on the rise. Israel's policies are clearly only exacerbating the problem. They want to turn people in the Gaza Strip against Hamas, when in fact they are strengthening Hamas.
