Hamas to Move to Egypt?

Egypt’s military government has invited Hamas to move its headquarters to Egypt, U.S. think tank Stratfor reported May 27.

The Supreme Council of the Armed Forces has invited Hamas politburo chief Khaled Mashaal to move from Damascus to a new home based in Cairo, it writes.

IsraelNationalNews.com says that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has announced that Hamas will be moving its headquarters. It says that Netanyahu told the Knesset Foreign Affairs and Security Committee that Mashaal has left Damascus and is moving to Egypt.

As Trumpet columnist Robert Morley wrote earlier this week, Syria will move away from its alliance with Iran. Egypt, on the other hand, is prophesied to become a much closer Iranian ally.

Hamas moving its headquarters to Egypt is symbolic of this shift. Watch for Egypt to continue to align itself with Iran and radical Islam.
