    Hamas has no airforce, no navy, no modern army. They shouldn’t even make our top 100 issues list

      Hamas has no airforce

      Tbh neither did Al-Qaida, until they hijacked a couple of planes. That’s the sort of threat being talked about, not like Red Dawn shit

        Yeah but Al-Qaeda was ranting about attacking the USA for years and had actually already done terror acts by 9/11

        Hamas basically doesn’t exist outside Israel. Technically, they’re Hezbollah’s little brother according to the US. They really only care about whatever happens in Gaza. Kind of like the Taliban in Afghanistan

        Ya if only our intelligence agencies spent more time looking for terrorists and not trying to overthrow brown peoples governments or trying to root out “socialist.”
