Hamas being dead weight for the Palestinian cause falls apart when you examine the international conscience level being raised after Oct 7th. If it hadn’t been for Palestinians organizing an armed defense of Palestine and striking back against their colonizers and exterminators, many of us (shamefully myself included) would still be saying “both sides bad, old religious conflict, complicated solution” in willful ignorance and Palestinians would continue being genocided in silence as has happened for the past 80 years.
