just for general interest....

I read articles relating how Hamas changed history with the recent popular "rising" that crossed the borders and forced Egypt to change its stand and in the process changed the entire political equation in the region.

I agree that it changed things, but in the opposite direction. Hamas probably gained the Syrians and Iranians but lost the Egyptians, who are the more important, because it complicated their internal and external calculations and subjected Egypt to an uncalculated danger.

Practically, Hamas and Israel conspired against Egypt for totally different reasons
