Then maybe it's time for Egypt to make a 10-mile no mans zone between them and the Gaza Strip since their wall (taller and deeper than one with Israel) does such a poor job.
Meanwhile the Hamas leader is calling for Egypt to open its border with Gaza.
While their civilizations were a monumental achievement, their conflicts in antiquity were no more noble or justified than the moronic fighting that continues in the middle east til today. That area has been the world's hotbed of wars for thousands of years.
In terms of the span of history not anymore so than Europe or the rest of Asia.
None that I can see. ISIS might be a little more gruesome (ie: beheading children), but hamas drags dead bodies through the streets tied to the back of motorcycles. why you ask? to send a message to anyone who might speak out against them.
Both "groups" would love to saw-off your infidel head!

Basically, yes.
We can argue about differences all day.
However, the common thread between the two is their ultimate goal of a world-wide Ummah, and the insertion of a Caliph as leader over all. Hamas was just created from the Muslim brotherhood, in part, to be the "leg" that is trying to eradicate Israel.
You can split hairs about their origins, activities, countries, etc. - but at the very bottom line, their mottos and goals are quite similar...destroy Western civilization, convert or kill infidels, and establish a Caliphate.
How they go about it with regard to the level of violence can be argued ad nauseam.

"common thread between the two is their ultimate goal of a world-wide Ummah, and the insertion of a Caliph as leader over all."
That really is the common goal amongst all of the Islamist 'to force their religion and will on the rest of the world.'
