I don't understand the support for Hamas among some on the leftist. Of course, I understand that Israel has oppressed the Palestinians for many years and there is no justification for this, but there is no need to justify the actions of religious fanatics who also kill civilians, especially since Israel itself has aggravated the problem with the Islamists

    You don't live under the boot of military occupation. You presume moral superiority but for us on the outside this is nothing but mental masturbation. If the marxists fighting and dying for Palestinian liberation are willing to fight side by side with Hamas, I support them. Liberation isn't a TV show.

      Gospel. It's like what I say about China and the Panthers. If they were good enough for Bobby Seale, they're good enough for me; likewise, if Palestinian comrades are arm-in-arm with Hamas against their oppressor, if Hamas is good enough for the Palestinian comrades, then I've no reason to gainsay it.
