Hamas on Tuesday named Yahya Sinwar, its top official in Gaza who masterminded the Oct. 7 attacks in Israel, as its new leader in a dramatic sign of the power of the Palestinian militant group’s hardline wing after his predecessor was killed in a presumed Israeli strike in Iran.
The selection of Sinwar, a secretive figure close to Iran who worked for years to build up Hamas’ military strength, was a defiant signal that the group is prepared to keep fighting after 10 months of destruction from Israel’s campaign in Gaza and after the assassination of Sinwar’s predecessor, Ismail Haniyeh.
The table doesn’t need a “good guy” to function.
It can have a bad guy, and a genocidal monster “bad guy”
If one of the people who’s supposed to be at the table is killing the other person who needs to come to it then there is no table. There’s simply that one man and targets.
Sure.
Let’s be clear here, there’s zero question what’s happening is genocide, and netanyahu is to blame.
But no one at this table is “good” or anywhere near it.
Killing or attempting to harm civilians is not ok (As in the oct 7 raid, and other Hamas activities that target civilians) even if your opponent is doing it A WHILE LOT MORE AND A WHOLE LOT WORSE.
