"but Hamas" is the same thing as "but ghetto culture".

C'mon . . .

This reads like something a right-winger would write as a parody of something someone on the Left would write.

"It is regarded, either in whole or in part, as a terrorist organization by several countries and international organizations, most notably by Israel, the United States and the European Union."

"Egypt, Saudi Arabia, Japan, New Zealand, Australia and the United Kingdom have designated the military wing of Hamas as a terrorist organization. The organization is banned in Jordan."

By the rightwing Netanyahu government against the rightwing terrorist HAMAS orgininization.

....And everyone else who lives in the West bank.

and potentially leading to a lot more deaths, that doesn't excuse Hamas for their own actions. You can condemn both organizations while saying that the Israeli government has a lot more power to inflict damage on the Palestinians.

And it is bullshit.

Hamas is a fundamentalist Islamic organization that is repressive as they come. Pretty much every member in every group in the Democratic coalition would be in prison or dead if we turned up there and expressed ourselves. We can all visit Israel any time we want.

We let our distaste at Israel’s actions normalize Hamas at our peril.

Sometimes a shitty group can be fighting an even More shitty group. And Hamas is as shitty as they come.

It could never happen here? Yet, now children from illegal immigrant families are being kept separate from their parent(s) in US government camps.

So it's the lesser evil approach in Israel?

I have no faith in the rightwing fundemtalist criminal Netanyahu government, fueled by he wannabe traitor dictator Trump, and a rightwing terrorist Hamas, nothing good is going to come from this.

If it doesn't stop soon thousands are going to die, most of which will be non hamas West bank people.

If you are in the right then you can withstand responding to other people on point, yes?

You're style of writing is familiar. Have you been on this site before or post on any other liberal discussion boards?

I stopped after taking a stand for gun control on DU.

personal you should be OK. You might get outnumbered but as long as you don't let yourself get trolled, you should be OK. What name were you posting under before?

I think.

Making a point about expectations about governments and those not in Hamas in the west bank.

There is no doubt about that.

Be very uncomfortable for you and others here to have to acccept that in order to continue your hard on for Israel that it's very inconvenient and makes you ignore you're on the same side with a TERRORIST organization. That's nobody's problem but your own. But you can forget getting the vast majority of Democrats to join you in ignoring the facts.

Simply making the allegation falls far short of illustrating it as true. Attempt to support your hypothesis with some objective evidence for actual depth-of-thought.

Or just continue using your bumper-sticker in place of critical thought.

Either way. Your choice.
