Can Hamas be firing rockets into Israel to push the price of oil higher?

Overt Operative asked:


Iran is suffering severe budget shortfalls because of low oil prices on the international market. Hamas is funded by the state of Iran. Could Hamas be acting under the direction of Iran to push oil prices higher? It interesting to note that no rocket attacks on Israel were happening when oil was over $100 a barrel.

      It already has.

      Iran will be devastated to see the Bush administration go. It’s done wonders for their budget.

      Probably. Iran created Hamas and they are suffering economically. So this is a good connection.
