(Ha'aretz) Zvi Bar'el - Egypt was the one to announce the cease-fire in Gaza. Egyptian sources said the cease-fire was conditioned on Israel agreeing to withdraw all its forces from Gaza. By making this demand, Egypt has accepted not only the role of mediator, but also the role of guarantor for Hamas' conduct.

Hamas currently has a vested interest in rehabilitating its relationship with Egypt, which controls the Rafah border crossing, a vital lifeline that Hamas desperately needs reopened.
