Are you still alleging that Iran's $6 billion that Qatar has frozen was the source for this offensive or have you let that one go?
Are you still trying to deny that the $6 billion that was unfrozen for the Iranians didn't make them feel emboldened.
I am now specifically talking about the over $100 million in "aid" that was sent to Gaza.
Your claim is now speculating on how the Iranians feel? How many steps down the logical chain is Hamas from Iran's feelings?
The overall political feeling and actual actions in Iran towards supporting Hamas are 1A on the Iranian feelings/actions chart.
Iran's BFF re: Israel is Hezbollah. Apart from sinking any KSA-Israel agreement and putting stress to the Abraham Accords, I don't see Iran having much actual ongoing interest in having Hamas riding their coattails while being the Crazy. $100 billion in frozen funds is what their eye is on, and Hamas just set that back to nearly square one.
This M.O. was also pretty far outside the pale of Hezbollah/Iran actions. But it does line up with other actors who have a huge reason to divert the attention of the West.
It's certainly a possibility that Iran won't get the $6b.
I agree there's more focus on Hezbollah by Iran. Because Hezbollah is bigger and they control the predominance of one of Israel's neighbors and have a shield in another neighbor. As they fight alongside a standing army to keep that regime in power.
That said, Hamas is a massive resource drain has moved well beyond a distraction for the Israelis, obviously. Thus they will continue to get strong support from Iran.
While the articles are a bit cryptic, it appears that the Iranian funds frozen in Iraq have already been released, $10bn.
Keep Israeli's bogged down, bust up the Abraham Accords, already got $10b (which was only released because Pedo Pete's administration gave the approval)
