  1. Hamas, founded in 1987, is the Muslim Brotherhood. Egypt hates Hamas. Israel saved the King of Jordan in 1971 as the PLO/Fatah tried to oust the Royal family. Jordan also hates Hamas. Fatah hates Hamas. Why do the Palestinians support Hamas ? Answer : Education. The caliphate banned printing in 1515, and when the Ottomans collapsed in the 1920s Palestine was 95% illiterate. It wasn't until the western educated PLO (Arafat) in the 1960s that the idea of nationalism took hold. This is shockingly late in the day. Compare America : in 1640 the settlers decreed every 50 man colony had to have a teacher, so children could read and write. In 1775 America was overwhelmingly literate. Almost everyone knew what a constitution was, and a parliament.
