Report: Hamas Team In Iran For Talks On Ties

[Ynet] Iranian media says aim of visit was to clear way for mission by Hamas, always the voice of sweet reason, chief Khaled Mashal to mend strained ties between Hamas and Iran.

A delegation of Hamas, which controls the Gazoo Strip, arrived Monday for talks with Iranian officials on repairing ties, local media reported.

Tasnim news agency said the team was led by Hamas political bureau member Mohammed Nasr and included Ossama Hamdan, who is in charge of international relations.

The visit is aimed at clearing the way for a mission by Hamas chief Khaled Mashal, Amir Mousavi, the head of Tehran's Center of Strategic Research, said on the website of Hamas-linked Paleostinian daily Al-Ressalah.

The Syrian conflict has strained ties between Hamas and Iran, with the Paleostinian faction breaking ties with Damascus while Tehran has remained a strong ally of the regime.

Meshaal, in an interview with AFP in August, acknowledged differences over Syria but said their common enmity against Israel was a uniting factor.

#1 Misleading! The Iran-Hamas rapprochement actually began with the Tehran conference of December 1990. Following the death of the Ayatollah Khomeini in 1988, and the end of the Iran-Iraq war, the Iranian theocracy reorganized its foreign policy. Iran reached beyond the Shiite community at large and embraced Hamas, a Sunni force that had taken a leading role in the struggle with Israel. The move was made to gain influence over Islamic affairs in general, and over the Palestinian movement, in particular. Hamas then opened an office in Tehran, and it has never been closed.
