Yesterday the Center for Security Policy<\/a> posted an article about the recent alliance between Iran and Hamas<\/a>. This is an interesting alliance as Iran represents the Shiite branch of Islam and Hamas represents the Sunni branch of Islam. So why are they working together–their common purpose is the destruction of Israel.<\/p>\n

The article reports:<\/p>\n

Earlier on Free Fire we spoke about continuing Iranian support for Hezbollah as well as Hamas.<\/a> Reports state<\/a> that Iran\u2019s Revolutionary Guards<\/a> have resumed transferring tens of millions of dollars to the al-Qassam Brigades<\/a>, Hamas\u2019 military wing. The funds were transferred under direct orders of Qasem Soleimani<\/a>, the head commander of the elite Quds Force, who also created an annual budget devoted to funding Hamas.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Allegedly the funds are primarily to fund the rebuilding of Hamas\u2019 tunnel network that was severely damaged in the Israeli counterstrike to Hamas\u2019 rocket attacks on Israeli cities, as well as purchase more missiles for future attacks. Despite the sectarian differences between Iran and Hamas, both organizations are dedicated to the destruction of the Israeli state<\/a>.<\/strong><\/p>\n

…In response to Iran\u2019s closer ties with Hamas, the Palestinian Authority has urged Saudi Arabia<\/a> to take a more active and stronger stance against Hamas, even going so far as to request the Saudis launch an attack on the Gaza Strip \u2013 despite Hamas condemning Israel for committing war crimes<\/a> when Israel did the same last year. With Hamas terminating the unity government with the PA back in November, relations between the two organizations are at an all time low. Perhaps Iran and Saudi Arabia will expand their proxy war from Yemen<\/a> to Israel next.<\/strong><\/p>\n

This is an example of what happens in the world when America has a weak President–Iran is running wild and Israel is at risk.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
