Its already an uphill battle organizing in a regular capitalist society, but in a situation as uniquely oppressive as Israel is to Palestine, unfortunately sometimes you have to make due with what you got. Nobody here said that Hamas is the democratic representative of Palestinians, but a fairly large chunk of them accept them as way more fair and less hostile than Israel.
Lesser of two evils does not make them good. They are accepted because there is no alternative. Something that Hamas has tried very hard to maintain.
I never said it makes them good, but I would like to see more reading about how Hamas tried hard to maintain that, if you have links.
Yeah I agree with that. But I think that even in the best of outcomes the situation is going to be pretty dire.
