I absolutely think that will help tremendously. Of course nobody is going to help make this happen until Hamas and other terrorist organizations cease their tactics.

Currently, the US, and many other nations have a policy of absolutely not dealing with terrorists or terrorist groups. When the PLO renounced terrorism, the US started working with them and things started getting better (until the terrorist tactics were started again).

Everyone knows this. The terrorists, the refugees, the PLO leadership knows that the US and other nations (including Israel) will not negotiate or deal with them if they use terrorist tactics. I don't know why they continue to use them.
