| Iranian Officials Meet with Hamas, Agree to Face ‘Zionist Danger’ Together |
| 2016-09-05 |
| [THETOWER.ORG] After representatives from Hamas, the well-beloved offspring of the Moslem Brotherhood, and the Iranian government met in Beirut on Friday, the two parties promised to work together to unite the Moslem world to face the "Zionist danger" together, Ma’an News reported. Ali Baraka, the Hamas representative in Leb, was received at the Iranian embassy in Beirut by the embassy’s head consul, Mohammad Majedi. Baraka emphasized the need to strengthen ties "in order to support Paleostinian resistance," Ma’an reported. Majedi stated his agreement, and reiterated his country’s support. The meeting came after Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps (IRGC) stated its support for Hamas in July, praising the terror group for its "humiliating defeat" of Israel in recent conflicts. The IRGC said that Hamas was "at the forefront of the Paleostinian nation’s anti-Zionism resistance and fight." |

| #4 Hamas backed away from Iran when the Moslem Brotherhood won elections in Egypt, as I recall. But the funding wasn't there even before al-Sisi ascended, and the temptation of a joint attack with Hezbollah shooting off rockets from Lebanon was too delicious too ignore. |

| #3 a 28 point declaration that in effect created an Iranian funded radical organization "hostile to negotiations with Israel." Which your President made a contribution to, some twenty-five years later... |

| #2 The Iran-Hamas alliance actually dates to 1991. In a counter to the US-sponsored Madrid Conference, a meeting of the Terrorist Internationale met in Tehran. There leaders of a passel of terrorist groups signed a 28 point declaration that in effect created an Iranian funded radical organization "hostile to negotiations with Israel." At that time Hamas opened an office in Tehran. Since then, the office has never closed. |
