Hamas is the government of the Gaza strip. They have a military and they do military operations. If you call them terrorists, you might hold that same opinion about other governments
i don't consider Hamas to be a legitimate government since they haven't held any elections in Gaza since 2006, nor do they provide services or international negotiations. Fatah, comparatively, is a legitimate government but lacks the ability to resist Israeli genocide
Israel has not allowed any elections in Gaza since 2006* FTFY
I think this might be a legitimate use of “both sides” but I don’t know enough about them to say for sure.
One side has all of the power and uses it to make elections illegal 🤷
Fair point!
I mean... Yeah, a lot of governments are.
In any case that shouldn't justify the genocide of those countries' civilians.
Hmmmm I won’t call them terrorists then but I DO hold that opinion about many other governments, especially the US hahaha
Joke's on you, I already thought most governments were terrorist organizations ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
