Wait, what!? How would this be a "huge strategic gain for the U.S."?

You could argue that it's a proxy conflict between the West and radicalized Muslim states. Sure. I would even listen to a discussion about rich elites using governments to keep areas destabilized in order to further their own fortunes.

But saying that somehow the U.S. would gain a huge strategic advantage is reaching. 

What would the strategic value be? Is there oil there? Would they put a base there that somehow had more capabilities than facilities they already have in the area?

This isn't 5D chess. This is two cultures that refuse to get along, being supported openly, and behind closed doors by larger nations.

Israel hates it's neighboring countries for good reason. Those countries hate Israel for good reasons.

The human rights violations are disgusting and I support the freeing of Palestine.

But when you do shit like what the Hamas just did, you destroy any sort of moral high ground you may have had. Two wrongs don't make a right, no matter what your culture is.

You can't divorce Hamas from Palestine either, like some commentors are trying to do.

Tribalism at its worst.
