I will again shill my theory that Israel will align itself with Russia in the coming years.
That would surprise me. Putin has his eyes on Tamar and Leviathan, and he doesn't want to buy it. It's in his best interests to help the Arab states and attempt to push the clock towards doomsday, then swoop in and claim the wreckage.
Assuming anyone more favorable to Israel than Obama (and this includes Clinton, Warren, Biden, or most other Democrats) takes office in 2.5 years, the status quo will likely resume.
As for the thread itself, no one here could seriously think that Hamas being legitimized as the Palestinian government wouldn't have massive repercussions. Israel has basically established this as a red line.
