I support RESISTANCE all over the world because I support humanity NOT genocide! Hamas never existed in the West Bank yet Palestinians still die. Remember that Hamas was proscribed as terrorists by the Western Hypocrisies who actually create and finance terrorists like AlQaeda, Al Nusra, ISIS, White Helmets, HTS and Boko Haram to whom they were sending USAID. Yet Israel's IOF who are still committing genocide even after the cease fire are not proscribed as terrorists. Sick World! We need a different world.

surely anyone with integrity supports any Resistance group and Hamas is one of a dozen factions in the Palestinian Resistance, no different to the French and Polish Resistance in WWII whom the Nazis also called terrorists.

Well I don’t want to start unconditionally valorizing the French Resistance. I think it’s enough to say that resistance to an occupier is both moral and legal in the natural and supernatural orders. That’s enough for me and should be enough for everyone who isn’t a Zionist.

I neither said it was unconditional nor valourized. I made the point they are the same thing, resistance to an occupier and that includes Hamas. pointing out we fought on the side of Resistance in WWII and now take the side of the occupier, Israel.

My retort is always: did you support the Warsaw Ghetto uprising? Because the Palestinians are the Ghetto residents of today, and the Israeli Occupation Force is the SS/Wehrmacht. The Nazis slaughtered almost all the Warsaw Ghetto residents, and burned the place to the ground. Remind anyone of the Israeli response in Gaza?

An informed conscience, yes.
