#2 "Hamas has definitely learned from Hezbollah,"

Learned what? To launch rockets randomly, as far as you can? Sounds more like the learned 'if all you have is a hammer then every problem is a nail.'

#3 Where will Iran get the money to fund Hamas and it's other pet projects in the coming year? It seems like there will have to budget cuts in the terrorist groups.

#4 Where will Iran get the money to fund Hamas and it's other pet projects in the coming year?

China, in exchange for very advantageous terms in future oil contracts.

Russia, because the US and Europe have an interest in the region.

#5 If you've always wondered why all the Chinese stuff out there is cheaper than everything else, part of the reason is they're not paying as much for feedstocks as the rest of you.

#6 g(r)omgoru,

You beat me to the punch. Years of close relationship between the two groups totally debunks the theory that they use the same tactics.

I considering, starting a think tank or RB will do, for now. I think I will stick with RB. At least, I don't have to provide health benefits.
