So I think Israel step up security to combat terrorism, Hamas use the mosque/religion as an excuse "this is our holy muslim mosque yada yada you cant stop us going here to murmur under our breaths" and that gives them grievance to call for an Intifada and thus justifying their existence
and so it goes on |
No one could have put it better LT.
