Also we have more in common with the members of the axis of resistance than we do with these so-called reform & "revolution socialists"

BTW this is the same bunch that spat in Cuba's face

    Very specific and limited solidarity with people who despite your fundamental disagreements, would further your cause to a degree by pursuing theirs should be pretty easy to understand. Why is it you only count as an Adult in the Room when you're in favor of doing a piss poor job of it? Being okay with Hamas getting a real W on Isreal stops both a war crime in state form from being around but also creates a slightly more multicolor world where it's both easier to gain sway and also a Hamas run Palestine would still be an enemy to communism but a WAYYYYY weaker one. See how this temporary alliance not only helps accomplish a short term goal but leaves the enemy we had to temporarily ally with as an easier obstacle to overcome than the initial enemy? Now let's look at Afghanistan. There's numerous others, but it seems like libs are way worse at this the enemy of my enemy stuff cause they have no long term plan. Ask a Lib to recall events from 20 years back or predict events 20 years in the future. They can't because they're golden retriever brained and will think because you moved your arm in the same gesture, you threw the ball.

      These are the kind of Trot that thinks you can trick liberals into supporting "communists" (the Trots) by hitting a few key issues but bending over backwards to avoid offending the liberals in any way lest they become alienated. They are also ultras so this is a very easy thing for them to practice by condemning virtually every target of the US State Department.

      When liberals asked, "do you condemn Hamas?" they answer(ed), "absolutely! They're the worst! Want to buy a newsletter?"

        'Do you condemn Hamas?' also really means 'do you condemn the actions on October 7th?' If you say yes but mean you entirely support everything Hamas is for. Subtlety is only to be applied to the oppressor. I don't Support Hamas, but I certainly support their attacks. I won't apologize or shrink from the in any way at all. The same people that will say you need to vote the lesser of two evils can't understand that a government led by people youndont really align with running a nation thet should have had sovereignty for almost a century now under sovereignty is good enough for the time being. That's setting realistic and humanitarian goals, thsts being the adults in the room. Iran Contra deathsquad funding ghouls who went on to support the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq have absolutely no moral ground to stand on to lecture about the lesser evil cause they've picked the greater evil at every chance. Fucking swine

      Would a Hamas run Palestine even be an enemy to Communism? their predecessors and many of the people in their coalition are explicityly socialist and they have decent relations with AES states like China and Vietnam.

            The PFLP was crushed and the Muslim brotherhood associated Hamas was raised in its place more or less by America/Israel. Hamas aren't the PFLP and have very opposing general ideology. There's members that went from one to the other cause it's a desperate game and you go with the resistance that's in town. But there's a reason it's these guys, it's cause they also kinda suck and it's easier PR for Israel to fight Islamic fundamentalists than secular socialists. They aren't the same organization and aren't by any measure an ideal government to tske hold of a united Palestine, but they're the guys we have.
