    Don’t change the subject. Why do you want to block Palestinian voices but give Israel free reign?

      Saying Hamas represents Palestinian voices is the same as saying the Taliban represents Afghan voices.

        Now who’s generalizing?

          That’s not a generalization, it’s a direct comparison.

          Both Hamas and the Taliban are brutal Islamic terrorist groups that also hold political control over their territories and claim to represent the people.

          Hell, the Taliban and Hamas are allied even.

            We’re taking about Israel/Palestine, don’t generalize to all Islamic movements.

              I’m not. I’m directly comparing two very similar and allied Islamic movements that cooperate and support each other.
