I was surprised to see that this was such a significant decision that it required an official statement from Hamas!
According to NRG, Hamas released an official statement in response to Regev's decision. The statement to the media said that "they can move their government offices to Jerusalem, but at the end of the day they will lose and Jerusalem will remain as it was always Palestinan - clean of Jews. The attempts to Judaize Jerusalem will fail... it is an expression of fear and desperation of the Zionists regarding their future..."
Even if all Regev's decision could do was upset Hamas like that, and not accomplish anything else, dayeinu.
