H: "Hamas cannot ask for the truce to be extended to the WB because they are not the rulers of the WB."

You`re kidding, Hannah?

Israel: It`s decision time, isn`t it?
Hamas: Yep, guess so.
Israel: So, where do we stand?
Hamas: Well, we are sick and tired of your soldiers killing our leadership in the West Bank.
Israel: Back atcha` sunshine! We are sick of your rockets from Gaza.
Hamas: OK then, you stop hunting our guys in the West Bank and we`ll stop the Qassams.
Israel: Awwww, what the heck! It`s a deal!
Hamas: We agree! Shake on it!

There, Hannah, done; an agreement that covers what ISRAEL does in the WB, and what HAMAS does in GAZA, and so your "argument" loses all its relevence.

It won`t happen, but the reason *why* it won`t is because Israel doesn`t want it to happen, and not because "Hamas is not the rulers of the West Bank".
