Iran's New Terror Base

Here's Charles Krauthammer:

This is the beginning of the Palestinian civil war. Round one happened this week, and it's over. Hamas has won in Gaza, it will take it over. And it is the worst elements.

As one high administration official said the other day, these are the extreme elements of the extremists. And this is essentially the first Palestinian independent territory — Israel is out of Gaza — and it will now become a terrorist state.

And it will also be, this is extremely important, a client of Iran. Hamas is supplied and financed by Iran.

And we do what? Invade? Or deal with it from a distance? If we can do the latter with Gaza, why not Anbar? Anbar, after all, is full of Sunni terrorists who would presumably counter the Shia terrorists. Doesn't that make leaving Anbar less dangerous than staying out of Gaza? Just asking.
