Many on the left view Hamas as a national liberation movement. According to Daniel Ben-Ami there is "no excuse for their ignorance about Hamas’s genocidal aims".
According to Daniel Ben-Ami's article This is not about ‘liberating’ Palestine, Hamas's objectives are not the liberation of Palestine, but the elimination of Israel and establishment of an Islamic caliphate.
The Council on Foreign Relations also provides a useful background on What is Hamas?
If you think that to march in solidarity with Britain's Jews tomorrow is to do them a favour, then you are wrong. They are leading the fight to defend our values. We need to march alongside them, to defend our shared values, before it's too late.
It's time to make our voices heard. Join us next Sunday, December 8th, on CAA's march against anti-Semitism.
Mark Birbeck explains why Our Fight and BFOI organised their first public meeting last week. Speakers Allison Pearson and Mick Hume argued that to defend civilisation's gains, we need to stand with Israel--the only country prepared to fight for its values.
On 8th December, we must stand together and march. Every part of our public life has been affected by the unprecedented surge in antisemitism. We must not allow this to become normalised. On 8th December, we must make our voices heard. Sign up at https://t.co/p9MlPavcJH. pic.twitter.
