I'm not defending them. Or do you seriously think me calling them a freaking dictatorship is a positive view of them? Since apparently a lot of people don't understand it, I'm just explaining how it is. You asking "why don't they just get rid of Hamas" is a perfect example. Because they are an authoritarian regime which has absolute no problem of killing everyone who speaks out against them. And then of course there is the indoctrination part which I also noted. That's the same stupid question like "Why don't Russians demonstrate against the war?" when those who do end in prison.
People acting like Hamas is a perfectly legitimate elected party is just so bloody stupid. The fact that the last "election" was 16 years ago should be more than enough for everyone to grasp as deeply undemocratic. And then of course they fail in pretty much every other aspect of what countries usually provide in an democratic country such as freedom of speech and freedom of the press. They also definitely don't have a proper separation of power. They do provide some assistance to their population to keep them on their side, but that's basically the same shit the Mafia did and they certainly aren't representative of the areas they control.
