Qatar kicks out HAMAS

a reply to: jofafot

They already host a large number of Hamas leaders and refuse to classify them as a terrorist organisation as they see them as freedom fighters. Erdogan has claimed Israel is treating Hamas and Palestinians the same as Hitler treated Jews and the Head of Turkeys' intel organisation has met Hamas leaders a number of times to give them intel that will benefit their terror attacks and also got

I doubt they'd take the leaders in Qatar in due to the reasons you highlighted but they have staunch support from the general population in Turkey so there's a lot of pressure to help them. They may possibly to take in the other leaders based in Qatar if they do get expelled. I think Iran would be the first choice to rehouse them but could well be wrong.

Nope. Just because erdogan and his ministers/minions talked with them doesn't mean turkey is "hosting" them.

It may not be exact same but it is getting suspiciously close each day.

Do people really believe this? Let's say this is real. Who spied on head of turkey's intel organization and how exactly they did it? No offense but this seems like yet another case of a random israeli claim taken as a fact with zero questioning.

"pressure" is not real, it is fabricated by none other than erdogan himself. He, his relatives and his lackeys own more than half of the media in turkey. Their strong presence in media industry gives off an illusion of how people think about current world events but it is just an illusion. Population's actual support for hamas is probably less than 50%. Turkey's "left" hates hamas. "Right" cannot be reasoned with and they are hell-bent on believing whatever erdogan says. He is like a divine figure for them. "Center" doesn't care whoever wins as they believe they have much more urgent problems to solve(for example, economy) before getting into regional(middle-east) issues.

That depends on how greedy qatar is willing be. If they are very greedy they won't take hamas as that'd guarantee sanctions against them, especially from usa, which would severely cripple their economy. Btw trump was the one who #ed turkey's economy, so it'd be wise of qatar to learn a lesson from turkey and not take hamas. Iran is the most suitable country for hamas if they were to ever run away from gaza/palestine.
