#1 so who was the Arab nation? Go ahead Hamas - strike them too. We can only hope that the Arabs start fighting each other. Divide and conquer.

#2 the Arab country was probably Egypt but maybe Jordan

I don't think any other Arab country has much intel assets in Syria (although it would truly be a hoot if it was Lebanon).

#5 Hamas: Arab State May Have Helped in Syria Killing

My heart pumps piss.

Permit me to add that such accusations of duplicity provide an unsurpassing degree of fitness with respect to Islamic terrorism in general.

#6 Actually, the US and Iraq's new government may be piecing together some of the old Iraqi government's records. And, of course, the terrs may have a strong desire to blame the new Iraqi government, so they can legitimize attacking it.

#8 Haaretz says this is so much bunk - Jordan and Egypt may have been giving background help to Israel, but not the specific info this article says. Alternatively somebody could be spreading this deliberately, to get the Syrians to watch their backs.

#9 As long as Hamas thinks it's true, and hopefully acts on it with their usual tact and subtlety...

#10 Any thought that it might be Syria, itself? They seem to have gotten puckered anuses lately. Perhaps a case of sacrifice a minor pawn and get some points with the US, while you still keep your main line of attack (collusion with Iran) going.

#11 "Palestinian activists said last week all Palestinian factions with offices in Syria had decided to close.... " More bluff and bullshit - they'll just close and re-open next door. Unless the Syrians are really getting worried enough to act and are putting pressure on the Paleos - pressure being edging them out of their offices and facillitating the killing of the odd Hamas leader.

Probably not Syria. If they wanted to get rid of someone they would have done it quietly. The way the operation was carried out creates shame for Syria and shame is something a dictator wants to avoid at all costs.

#15 Yo, yo, yo, when rats attack other rats it becomes rather ugly. Sit back and enjoy the show!

#16 At a certain point won't Islamic Jihad and Fatah begin to drop dimes on the Hamas activists as they attempt to win the jackpot for themselves?
