The learning curve

Hamas has appointed a new leader, but hasn't named him publicly for fear that the new leader will be as short-lived as the old one. Which is weird, because they can't really keep the new leader a secret for a long time. Israel is going to find out in a few weeks at the latest, or, failing that, go through all the senior leadership in the hope of nailing the right guy.

Besides, it's unfair of Israel to just attack Hamas all the time. I am sure Hezbollah's leader Nasrallah (as a Russian-speaking person I can't stop admiring the name) wants to meet Allah and his 72 virgins as well.
