  • I’m not saying it as a gotcha, I’m stating it as a fact. Hamas is Palestinian, made up of Palestinians and currently representing the Palestinian people to the world.

    It’s not wrong to say Hamas is Palestinian, it’s 100% accurate and truthful.

    Hamas existed well before they were elected, their founding Charter is based on Islamic jihadism. You’re not so ignorant as to believe that the people of Gaza weren’t aware of this when electing them, and if you are then please get off tik tok and touch some grass.




  • Except for the fact Iraq wasn’t calling for the death of all Americans as part of their charter. It’s nothing alike, this is more like if Mexico started attacking America every single day and said it wouldn’t stop until every American was dead.

    The leadership of Hamas has said clearly that Israel is the start, they intend to take Jordan next. They’ve already tried and failed in Jordan.

    Israel has offered something like a dozen internationally backed peace agreements. Each one has been rejected by the Palestinians who refused to acknowledge Israel as a country. What do you mean they’ve long made it clear? They’ve made offers over the past twenty years… they left Gaza entirely in that time. They’re not trying now, but they’ve certainly tried plenty over the years.

    Considering Israel has returned land that it’s acquired in conflicts, they’ve shown they’re not interested in crossing into Jordan, Egypt and the like. I don’t think I’ve ever seen an argument they’re trying to be expansionist beyond the west bank or what their hard right would consider their biblical borders, that’s a weird one. Their push to the river is clearly a defensive maneuver to rid itself of a threat that can strike its capital. Peace would eliminate that argument and most Israelis are in favor of leaving the wb and the strip entirely.
