          It's complicated because Hamas did win the elections in all of Palestine but due to fighting with Fatah (basically Israeli puppet party at this point) Hamas is mostly centered in Gaza. There were supposed to be elections this year but the fighting caused Fatah to cancel it, NOT Hamas as people with often claim. Hamas actually supports elections more than the "moderate" Palestinians lol

            PFLP :(

            Maki is still around for all Palestinians not in Gaza or the West Bank, and is openly communist. I just hope that PFLP or a similar group takes back control of the PLO/Fatah. It would be great for Hamas to have a secular radical counterpart.

            Essentially yeah, you're not even joking with the road thing given that they have bombed roads leading to hospitals.

    "If those Palestinian children didn't want to be burned alive by white phosphorus, they shouldn't have been attending a Hamas-run kindergarten."

    This Atlantic article portrays the entire western media as anti-Israel and tolerant of Hamas. What gives?
