I'm not seeing it so much. Hostage bargaining chips go back a lot further. It's not like somebody in, say, Boku Haram is going to get a sudden inspiration. Both sides will get something they want, and 6 weeks of ceasefire is good for both sides. It likely won't last that long. Either the Israeli religious nut jobs or Palestinian Islamic Jihad (who are at best loosely controlled by Hamas, and likely have done a substantial part of what Hamas is blamed for) will come up with a provocation.
