    Hamas is the government of the Gaza strip. They have a military and they do military operations. If you call them terrorists, you might hold that same opinion about other governments

      i don’t consider Hamas to be a legitimate government since they haven’t held any elections in Gaza since 2006, nor do they provide services or international negotiations. Fatah, comparatively, is a legitimate government but lacks the ability to resist Israeli genocide

      I mean… Yeah, a lot of governments are.

      In any case that shouldn’t justify the genocide of those countries’ civilians.
