'member that HAMAS was started by three-letter black-ops merchants. The MIC needed some militant group to encourage more arms-sales to Israel. So it is always very easy to condemn them, as we should. But this also explains why BLM is throwing in their lot for Palestine.
But ... People inside Gaza are living in a dire, overcrowded and ill-serviced urban environment, full of refugees from multiple Israeli land grabs. And so, HAMAS fluently became a political entity. People will vote for someone displaying a little backbone, and when one's neighbors are burying their children, it is easy to side with HAMAS, regardless of their glowing roots. Of course that election was declared illegal by the Israelis, because that's impossible right? Terrorists cannot form a government, after all. And GAZA is in Israel, they say. (Forgetting that Israel and Palestine were always two nations, from the inception of a growing ISrael in Palestine, in 1946).
The Logic is painful to behold. What did they think was going to happen?
So birds-of-a-feather tend to roll up and combine prime agendas in true merger fashion, and we find the squad supporting Palestine, and perfectly rational people like RFK Jr. supporting the bombing of Palestinian civilians, by fervently supporting Israel.
I wish JFK Jr. didn't support either side, TBH, as he comes across as a good person, otherwise. IMO, the only politicians that are worth listening to now, are those who campaign for lasting peace like Trump is- no more causes please (looking at you RFK Jr.).
Of course, this current state of confusion is encouraged, as it adds to the chaos in congress. And we know that chaos breeds opportunities.
