    I understand that. I said they got co-opted, not that they were always bad. The implication of the comment you were agreeing with is the Hamas is trash and we should support the Palestinian Authority is the most legitimate force for Palestine.

      That’s a huge jump from what they said in the comment I replied too.

        Maybe it’s a bit of a stretch, but it still is definitely condemning Hamas. Our support is always critical, but Hamas definitely deserves our support.

      that is not what i said and that is not what i meant, i think Hamas is the only option for Palestinian liberation but i dont think we should be upholding them as any kind of a gold standard which seems to be a thing thats happening around here lately, my point was that we should have a more measured take on Hamas as an organization, maybe i didnt use the best words (tho i still think i did).
