    It shows that Hamas was never a simple proxy who follow and say anything iran want them to do or say

      Or, which I find more likely:

      • Qatar sponsors Hamas
      • Qatar hosts Hamas leadership for more than a decade
      • Qatar gets bombed by Iran
      • Qatar tells Hamas leadership to tell Iran to stop or else Hamas gets the boot

    I don’t see how anyone could expect to influence iran at this point. Trump is so trumpy. He has this go all out thing and then wants to threaten with more but there is no more. Its the epitome of this python thing from life of brian https://youtu.be/JjomrwEMSAA

    The group that misjudged the situation to an epic fucking degree (hamas,) should shut the fuck up. Iran can and should target oil infrastructure in neighbors that host enemy bases, from their own point of view, it’s the only card they have to play, raising oil prices.
