I swapped the original article at the request of a mod to from a source deemed more reliable, but to avoid confusion when reading the comment section prior to this edit, here is the link to the original article. I chose the Relief Web source listed by some who commented. Cheers!

    The reason Hamas is in existence is because their peoples’ homes being taken and the Palestinians being killed constantly, for years. What would you do if your nation has lived in their land for ages, and a people came and took your family homeland and killed your family, and took neighborhoods and whole swaths of areas, then penned you up so that you couldn’t exit or enter your country without their permission…don’t you think you’d rise up with some other warriors to do something, anything? That’s what Hamas is. It is not a terrorist organization to go out and cause terror and trouble. It is the fighting representative of a beaten people.

      Did you not notice the events that started this recent shit? Hamas certainly engages in terrorism, as does the IDF.

        Did you not notice the giant wall around Gaza and the starvation and israeli bombing of their infrastructure before October the 7th?

        Are you gonna call the Ukrainians terrorists too for blowing up the train track that connects Russia to China?
