The anti-Syrian Kuwaiti daily Al-Siyassa today quotes an associate of the Damascus-based political bureau chief of the Hamas movement, Khaled Mash'al, as saying that Hamas leaders in Damascus had told Iranian authorities of their rage at Syria's change in its relations to the movement.

The report added that Mash'al had asked to meet with Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad to discuss transferring the Hamas command from Damascus to Tehran if Syria were to restrict it.
