    Palestine is not Hamas.

    Hamas is the governing party of Palestine. Palestine is Hamas in the same way Russia is the Putin administration. Certainly that can change in the future, but right now, Hamas is running the government of Palestine.

      Hamas is the governing party of Palestine.

      No it’s not. You are confusing Palestine with Gaza, Gaza is a small part of Palestine.

        Sorry, I should have said: Hamas is the governing party of Palestine in the Gaza Strip, there is no government above them as Hamas is the government of that portion of Palestine. That entire region of Palestine is Hamas in the same way Russia is the Putin administration.

        Hamas … is a Sunni Islamist political and military organization that is the de facto government of Palestine in the Gaza Strip

      So Israel is Natanyaho then? These are all awful governing bodies but they don’t represent their people in my opinion.

        Russia never invaded Ukraine, it was just the Putin administration who invaded Ukraine.
