It's not a secret that Iran has been backing Hamas for many, many, many years now. | |
Despite the fact that Iran is ruled by a Shi'a Muslim regime, and Hamas is a Sunni Muslim fundamentalist organization, in this particular case, it doesn't seem to matter. | |
Iran has been backing Hamas in their fight against Israel for decades now, with some estimates, by the way, showing that the Iranian regime sends Hamas somewhere around $100 million per year, which is then used for weapons, training, and just general funding. | |
Now, there have been some infighting between Hamas and the Iranian regime during the Syrian civil war, but that was a relatively short period of time, and generally, Iran has been a staunch supporter of Hamas in their fight against Israel. | |
And this latest attack, well, it appears to be no different. | |
Although, right at this moment when you have the fog of war, the level of involvement that Iran actually had in this attack, well, it depends on who you ask. |
