Sorry there are so many terrorists, I should have mentioned: not THOSE terrorists. Ofc the Palestine protesters are in solidarity with Hamas, but I am not sure if those same people are aligned with ISIS.

Hamas isn’t a terrorist organization, they have a mandate from the people and were formed directly in response to the genocide of said people. They stop existing when the genocide is over.

That’s an insane thing to say about a group founded specifically to kill Jews and has been doing so ever since. Also, having a “mandate from the people” doesn’t stop an organization from being terrorists.

It was founded specifically because Israelis killed the founders preteen son during an attack.

Article 7 of their 1988 charter cites a verse demanding a holy war to exterminate the Jews, one so fierce that the very stones and trees call out to announce their hiding spots. Article 8 of the same charter states “Jihad is [Hamas’s] path and death for the sake of Allah is the loftiest of its wishes.” It doesn’t get much clearer than that.
