Hamas running out of tricks

Hamas: Israeli move "a declaration of war"

Hamas reminds me of a small dog that parks a lot but can’t back it up when it is time to fight it out with a bigger dog. So Israel declared war on Hamas, what Hamas is going to do about it. Are they going to fight back or just talk till the cows come home. If they can’t back up their words with action, then they better shut up, and hope that someone generous would feed them.

Hamas came to power as protest vote against the overwhelming corruption of the PLO. Their story is very similar to the Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt. Nobody would pay much attention to a fanatical organization if the condition was good and corruption was limited, but with so much corruption going around people tend to vent their anger by supporting a fanatical organization with the idea that any change would be better than the existing situation.

Now with Hamas in power they are running out of tricks, they can’t fight and they can’t survive without the support of western aid. They can’t be corrupt because they don’t have any money to steal from. Their treasury is empty they don’t even pay their salaries. Their financial situation will only get worse, either they change their ideology and start embracing the concept of country called Israel or they will bring their people more suffering and push them to the edge of starvation and chaos. Both options will bring Hamas down. It is only a matter of time.
