- [T]he leaders of various Palestinian
factions are seeking Iran's support for their jihad (holy war) against
Israel.
- This means
that Iran under Raisi will continue to provide the Palestinian terrorist
groups in the Hamas-ruled Gaza Strip with financial and military aid.
- Iran did
not promise to contribute to the reconstruction of the Gaza Strip in the
aftermath of last May's 11-day war between Hamas and Israel. Iran did not
promise to build new hospitals and schools in the Gaza Strip. Iran did not
promise to help the two million Palestinians living in the Gaza Strip cope
with the rising number of Covid-19 infections.
- Iran's
renewed promise to help the Palestinians in their fight against Israel
shows that the mullahs in Tehran feel emboldened by the perceived weakness
of the Biden administration and other Western powers in dealing with the
Iranian nuclear threat.
- The
silence of the US and the rest of the international community towards the
latest threats from Iran and its Palestinian proxies signals that it is
only a matter of time before the Palestinian terror groups' jihad toward
Israel, most likely enthusiastically assisted by Iran, resurges in a way
that is entirely expectable.
