Interesting indeed. But, I think the assassination of the Hamas guy in Dubai and ongoing police investigation is an even better story and will make a better movie.

Who knows, maybe they will tie in together and can be included in the same title.

Sadly, lots of interesting movies could be made about what has happened in that region. :(

Interesting article indeed. This is huge for the pro-Israel movement, as it has someone who was deep inside the Hamas movement essentially saying that it, not the Israeli government, is responsible for Palistinian suffering.
“Hamas cannot make peace with the Israelis,” he said. “That is against what their God tells them. It is impossible to make peace with infidels, only a ceasefire, and no one knows that better than I. The Hamas leadership is responsible for the killing of Palestinians, not Israelis.”

A spy for Israeal blaming everything on Hamas? Oh shocking. No bias there I guess.

I would think the son of the leader of Hamas may have a bit more credibility than the average Iraeli spy.

Good interview of the man on BBC newshour today. It's worth a listen.

The man said he was angry with certain groups or people inside Hamas. Not really Hamas as a whole.

It also sounds like he was in it for the money that was pouring in.
