‘My enemy’s enemy' - is of course usually - 'my friend’ in the Middle East, but sometimes it is more complicated.
Ten years ago, the Gaza-based Islamist Hamas Palestinian terror organization fell out with the regime of Syrian President Bashar al-Assad over the latter’s brutal suppression of revolts against it. Hamas officials also assessed, like most intelligence agencies, that Assad is doomed to be swept from power.
Late last month - with Assad still ruling Syria thanks to help by Russia, Iran and Hezbollah - Hamas returned to Damascus, conceding a reality in which both parties do not have a surplus of allies.
Is there more than meets the eye in the Syria-Hamas story?
