The point you’re making about Hamas is fine: they are awful dictators, they treat people who oppose them like that. *But what I’d like to know is why you are trying to generalize and paint Hamas in a different picture.
Please excuse my ignorance if I said anything you feel was inaccurate. Certainly not my intention to be wrong about anything. Hamas’s ideological origins did not arise with the founding of Hamas™ in 1987.
It’s an ideology of Sunni Islamism, which is itself an ideology of Sharia law and Islamic separtism, nationalism, supremacy, and violent oppression of anyone that some some unelected cleric or imamate unilaterally says are “the infidels.” And that would largely be fine with me if it wasn’t part of an international coalition of far right authoritarian theocracies bent on one missiom: bleeding out the west using any means necessary including indiscriminate attacks on civilians, suicide bombings, until it can get its hands on nuclear weapons and “destroy the West for good.” It includes virtually all militant Islamists and arise from pan-Islamism.
It is an ideological alliance that can be fairly lumped together for some purposes. It’s not just a total coincidence that this coalition constitutes most of countries supporting South Africa’s application to the UN, many of whom are state sponsors of terrorism, including support for Hamas, as well as other terrorist groups. As I understand it, ISIS and Hamas have virtually identical ideologies with the exception being as to who should be the head of the snake, Iran or the Caliphate. Both organizations are indistinguishable as to their willingings to target civilians, ya know, terrorism, and their desire to bring death to all infidels. Both groups are adherents of jihad.
I’m not saying they are the same, I’m saying they are ideological allies to a point, and that point is well within the bounds of intolerance to western civilization, once they are acting like imperialists I mean.
That’s not to say that imperialism is only okay when the West does it. Rather, it’s to say that it took all humanity including the West thousands of years to come up with government of the people and by the people rather than by some king or some imaginary magicical sky man, and damn it all to hell if decent people fail to stop us from falling back into the dark ages.
I appreciate you.

Thanks, wish I could say the same about you.
You can!
