On Friday, reports emerged of Hamas officially severing ties with the Assad regime: Hamas has thrown its political clout behind an uprising against Syrian President Bashar al-Assad, the Palestinian Islamist group’s longtime patron and host, a shift that cracks a formidable alliance and further widens the Middle East’s sectarian divide. Ismail Haniyeh, prime minister of [...]
