Why Does Hamas Want War?

Another scenario is perhaps to set a trap for IL and reconnect with the Axis Iran/Syria/Hizbullah hoping to open a new front in N-Lebanon.

Who knows how many tunnels have been dug in the North of Israel, from south lebanon.

Contrary to reality, Hamas is not the David VS Goliath. Hamas is as we all know, an Islamic metastases. The West and Mass media want to see blood at any cost. It is good for the defense industry and for the "journalists", who on the Gaza side must kowtow to the Islamic narrative. The Western world makes every effort to keep its head in the sand. There is plenty of sand in N-Africa and the ME.
