Members are free to form their own opinions but I’m absolutely not doing PR for Hamas. Nobody, anywhere, will find a positive word I have to say about them. Conflating Hamas with all Palestinians is another unhelpful feature of pro-Israeli discourse.

Sure, I’m going against the pro-Israel unlimited and unrestricted right to self defence (ignoring international law, and their obligations as an occupying force) - seemingly a majority opinion in this thread if a minority in the country as a whole.

I wouldn’t agree that they have gone off the rails but I’ve certainly seen some posts removed rather than have anyone argue with the substance which is disappointing if I was wrong it should be easy to disprove. The claim that 300,000 protesters are “pro-Hamas” is more ridiculous than anything I’ve said and gets to stand.

Members can’t see past their own bias (I’ll include myself here) on the conflict, regardless of how many Palestinians die.

I’m not sure the post above is good PR for Hamas.

Here I discuss punishing Hamas while minimising civilian casualties.

Again dismissing that Israel “do nothing”.
