Hamas breaks with Damascus

The terrorist organization, Hamas, has come out in favor the protestors against the government. This is the first time that they have spoken out against the Syrian President, Bashar al-Assad. This is an interesting development, considering that Hamas is being back the Syrian government. Many countries have pressured Hamas into changing their stance after roughly 6,000 Syrians have been killed due to the increasing violence between the government and citizens. Many in the Hamas leadership have left Damascus and are currently in talks with foreign nations to move their headquarters elsewhere.
