@ArneBab @Morgunin Hamas is first and foremost the civil society of Gaza. They were democratically elected, and will be again if the PA allows another election. It started as q da'wa org by a blind quadriplegic, Sheik Ahmed Yassin, and only later developed their militant al-Qassam Brigades wing. Without Hamas, there would be no schools, no hospitals, no food, nothing in Gaza, all of which they smuggle in, and pay for using their well-organized da'wa.
Blaming Hamas as Israel uses white phosphorous in the most densely populated place on earth is hardly different from Russia blaming UAF while bombing residential zones of cities. And there is no denying that Ukraine has targeted and killed thousands of Russophone civilians in the war. The primary difference I can gather is that Ukraine is a geopolitical battle between two major military powers (Boris Johnson halted the peace talks it should be remembered) with Ukrainians caught in the middle, whereas Hamas is fighting with makeshift weaponry in one of the poorest parts of the planet, against the most technologically advanced military in the world after the US.
