Following ISIS Comparisons, Hamas Orders Halt to PUBLIC Executions

It turns out Hamas is worried about bad press, or perhaps it's Qatar who is worried.

Whichever of the two is concerned more, Hamas is apparently finding it difficult to maintain media sympathy when the comparisons between ISIS and Hamas are simply undeniable.

Khaled Abu-Toameh reports that Hamas has given orders to end all executions in public squares and public places.

Based on the wording, Hamas's executions of Gazan citizens won't be ending, they're just ending the executions in public.
