Hamas border takeover was about a lot more than rowdy Arabs

Things are going to hell in the Middle East. Hamas has taken total control of Gaza and is working hard to take over the West Bank, Samaria, Judea and Jerusalem. When Hamas takes over the West Bank, they will then overwhelm the border with Jordan like they just did in Gaza. Hezbollah meanwhile continues to strengthen itself and undermine the Lebanese government. Fatah falling to Hamas, and all of Fatah’s US & UN supplied weapons falling into their hands is a matter of when, not if. Once the West Bank falls Israel will be in the position of being pinched between three belligerent areas and subject to a three pronged ground attack.

Hamas border takeover was about a lot more than rowdy Arabs
By Caroline B. Glick
Tuesday Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak had his first reported telephone conversation with his Iranian counterpart President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad. Their conversation was a sign of the rising intimacy in Egyptian-Iranian relations in the wake of November's US National Intelligence Estimate on Iran's nuclear weapons program. According to media reports, the two men discussed the situation in Gaza.
Their conversation brought immediate results. Wednesday Mubarak allowed Hamas to take control of the international border between Egypt and Gaza. Hundreds of thousands of Gazans streamed across the border. Mubarak maintained his faith with Ahmadinejad even after the US Wednesday afternoon began demanding that he reassert Egyptian control over the border. Wednesday evening Mubarak said that the border will remain open.
Wednesday's border takeover by Hamas was but the latest escalation of the Palestinian campaign for control over the international border. This campaign has been ongoing since Israel withdrew in 2005 and was sharply escalated after Hamas seized control over Gaza last June.
