Im not calling you a terrorist...
I will say however, your understanding of Hamas and Palestine are obviously outrageously limited and very obviously skewed by left leaning talking points..
I have personally spent A LOT of time in the middle east.. and A LOT of time in Lebanon and in Israel and in Jordan.. and have done A LOT of work directly related to dealing with the Palestinian "problem" (not limited to, but including providing of law enforcement and security training, mentoring, advisory, and direct support to the Palestinians through various US government programs via the Palestinian Authority)..
How much time have you spent with Palestinians? or in the region? Are your opinions based on personal experience and fact? Or just something you saw on MSNBC or read online?
The overwhelming majority of Palestinians living in Gaza supported the notion of Hamas being in power prior to the October 7th attack on Israel.. Not because they were going to get murdered if they didnt.. but because for generations the majority of them have been told since childhood that the purpose of a woman living in Gaza is to birth future martyrs, and the purpose of a man living in Gaza is to become a martyr..
Do all of them 100% buy into that idea? Of course not.. many just want to be left alone, to be allowed to get a job, earn a living, raise a kid or two, etc... but it doesnt change the fact that the majority at a minimum support the idea of SOMEONE being a martyr for the cause, of women birthing future martyrs, etc (they just might not want to go blow themselves up or to go attack an Israeli school, etc.. but they arent going to cry any tears when someone else does it.. and they are perfectly ok having a government that encourages it, having friends committed to it, etc..etc..)..
Want to know what a Palestinian thinks and believes? Why not go ask one? Ive personally asked many.. Ive also talked to numerous Jordanian officials, Lebanese officials, and Israeli officials.. and while those three countries dont agree on much.. they all very much agree that none of them really want Palestinians living in their countries.. and they certainly dont want any more of them coming across their borders than they already have..
There is a reason that Jordan has killed somewhere between 3000-5000 palestinians (depends on whose numbers you believe) and that more than 20,000 palestinians fled Jordan during Black September.. and a reason that Jordan has killed and/or imprisoned numerous palestinians every year since then..
Theres a reason that somewhere between 1500-4000 palestinians were killed by Lebanese forces during the Lebanon civil war.. and continued to be killed every year until Hezbollah (another Iranian backed, palestinian terrorist group) took control of Lebanese politics (they currently hold 62 of the 128 seats in Lebanons parliament)..
