The Al-Aqsa Deluge [the name Hamas gave its 7 October onslaught - ed.] is just the first time, and there will be a second, a third, a fourth. Will we have to pay a price? Yes, and we are ready to pay it. We are called a nation of martyrs, and we are proud to sacrifice martyrs."

Not really.

Go back in time. Hamas was originally created in 1987 to fight for Palestinian lives and rights - because Israel government kept oppressing and murdering (men, women and children).

Whenever Palestinians would do anything back, they would get oppressed real quick (probably violently?).

If peaceful revolution is not possible, violent revolution is inevitable.

What do you expect Palestinians and Hamas to do - sit tight and die?

EDIT: Seeing your other comments to people and calling some “tankies”, just shown me that it is if no use to actually discuss/ argue with you.

So I will only leave it with this comment.

To try to justify "violent revolution", the targets of that violence can't be innocent bystanders.

Gong up against police or military targets, ok I can see the argument there. Explicitly massacring civilians though is abhorrent. Yes this sentiment can be applied to both sides of the conflict, that should not give either side the green light to wantonly massacre civilians.

I’m not justifying it, I even condemn what happened on October 7th. But I’m not surprised.

1948 up to 2023 being oppressed, driven out of land, homes and being murdered (men, women and children) on a daily basis.

That drives people nuts, at one time -It will just break people and people will do something. That happened.

If Israel didn’t continue to do all these horrendous deeds, this might not even have happened. Hamas was literally created in 1987 to fight for Palestinians lives and rights - because Israel kept doing, what they’re doing.

It is just really sad to see the way it all goes.

I just wish both sides would ceasefire.

EDIT: correcting spelling. Typing in the night without glasses, isn’t a good idea. I suppose.

Israel was suspicious towards the Palestinians because it was trying to prevent October 7th from occurring before October 7th were Wars against it started in conjunction with Arab coalitions, terrorist attacks, mass rioting and attempts to destroy Israel without the Arab armies.
