Research and read about the Israeli and Palestinian conflict over the past 40 years. Hamas is not just an extremist group, but one of the first ethno-nationalist terrorist groups fighting against Israel. Israel views Hamas not just as a terrorist organization, but a domestic threat. With this in mind, describe the current operational capabilities of Hamas. How likely could it be that a group much like Hamas could effect a threat against the United States, how would homeland security entities (intelligence, law enforcement, first responders) react to this kind of threat.
