The Hidden Battle: What Hamas Truly Wants
While publicly claiming to restore order, Hamas's underlying motive appears to be self-preservation amid internal threats. The group recognizes that once the guns fall silent on the broader conflict, its gravest danger arises from within Gaza. Rival militias, local clan armies, and discontented factions pose a direct challenge to Hamas’s dominance. To prevent this, Hamas is engaging in ruthless suppression—signaling that no other entity will be allowed to share power or challenge their authority.
