Hamas and Netanyahus rhetoric; name a more iconic due.
These fuckers fit hand and fucking glove.

Netanyahu: Hamas is a terrorist organization that wants to eliminate the Jewish nation
Hamas: yeah he’s right
That's why Nethanyahu funded them.
All his investments paid off in this neat little casus belli.
He allowed Hamas to be funded but it's still horrific the hand he had in making this monster. He allowed Hamas to grow so it would fight those looking to negotiate toward a two-state solution.
Both of them have caused so much harm.
They're not doing their supporters any favours with these sort of comments lol
It’s easy to support Palestinian statehood. Anyone that supports Hamas is a moron.
I was about to say, who's out there supporting hamas
Bro like literally 90% of Lemmy has a throbbing boner for Hamas and his stated antisemitic terrorists, even in this thread, terrorists apologizers abound
You've not been in these threads for very long, have you?
Considering Hamas is the organization governing Gaza right now, the two are often intertwined in these discussions
It seems to me that Hamas "governs" Palestine the same way groups like the Mafia or Yakuza "govern" the people they extort.
They shouldn't have any fucking supporters. This is the shit all the anti-Israel people are supporting. I'm no fan of Netanyahu but wtf do they expect Israel to do? It's like everyone forgot what prompted this and thinks Israel just woke up one morning and decided to raze everything because they were bored.
I'm no fan of Netanyahu but wtf do they expect Israel to do?
I expect them not to commit war crimes at a bare minimum.
Which supporters? This is a boon to Vladimir Putin, as world attention and aid to Israel comes at a cost to support for Ukraine.
By escalating the conflict to a genocidal ground war, Israel's criminal leaders may have doomed not only Israelis, but the people of Ukraine as well.
Not to condone their actions, but what would Hamas care about getting supporters? Palestine situation hasn't been helped much at all by international supporters, so it's not like they care about that.
The two are linked together. When aid has been sent to Palestine, to help Palestinians, Hamas has taken it for themselves. There was an EU project I believe to build water infrastructure, and Hamas took it apart to make into rockets.
I don't think it's possible to provide material support to the Palestinians. Hamas just takes it all. It's so fucked.
A senior member of Hamas has hailed the systematic slaughter of civilians in Israel
When asked whether this meant the complete annihilation of Israel, Hamas replied: “Yes, of course.”
who still thinks hamas are the good guys?
If you're coming to any international conflict, but specially to this one, from a "good guys/bad guys" framework you're absolutely not helping.
Sometimes (a lot of times, sadly) all you get in a particular issue is just assholes all the way down. Unsurprisingly, deadly military conflicts where both sides have proven at best a callous disregard for civilian casualties practically requires the asshole pile to be expansive and thorough.
The question is how you get the endless, writhing mass of assholes to stop. Which isn't looking great right now.
Only tankies. Literally no one out here with a braincell is defending Hamas.
I made the mistake of commenting on this post where people clearly think that the Hamas are the good guys and have every right to do what they do. Apologies for linking to it.
Nobody said they were.
edit: okay crazy people on a lemmygrad site said they were. But that page that guy linked looked about as nice as a 4chan site....
Somebody told me recently on here that "Hamas is facing a genocide" apparently without any sort of irony or remorse.
Who still thinks any state is the good guys? Hamas and Israel are both enemies of the people.
The only way to cut through the propagandistic lies of these groups is to point out that neither truly represents the people they say they do.
I mean, Hamas took power by killing Palestinian civilians. They don’t represent anyone and they openly say they will martyr civilians.
The Palestinian National Authority (Fatah) was the democratically elected government of Palestine before 2007. Hamas staged a coup and executed Fatah officials, which is why Gaza and the West Bank are separate entities today.
Hamas is as much a state as Al-Qaeda. They’re a terrorist group that seized power by way of murder and have openly declared they intend to use their citizens as shields and martyrs.
They’re not a state. They’re a terror cell that deserves to be eliminated. Unfortunately their own admitted tactics of using civilians as shields means that civilians will be killed.
This is an 100 year conflict, all the good guys are dead.
Why do people feel this need to be good/bad. Everybody knows by now how complex is the middle east
Well I've done some maths, and I'm pretty sure the IDF can kill the population of Gaza faster than Hamas can kill the population of Israel.
That's exactly what Hamas wants to see because that's what gets Israeli to lose international support and prompts Arab nations to invade.
They don't give a shit about the Palestinian people.
Hamas saw that Bibi is digging a giant hole for himself and said “I want in”
