Hamas is run out of Qatar, next to our important forward command bases there.

It's a radicalization program on the order of ISIS, Al-Qaeda, or Jamat al Nusra.

It's a proxy excuse by American 'interests' to give a pretext to their co-stakeholders in Israel to finish cleansing the land and get to those important commercial projects, in preparation as a key gateway of the southern leg and maritime leg of the Belt-Road Initiative. Ukraine is the historic gateway of the northern leg too, by the way.

Of course they feel they have the right, as they were cleansed from North Africa, so tit for tat. If either or both projects 'fail' to achieve their full scope, they both at least will leave a hand in the game, while preparing the Americas as a landing pad.
