Why Hamas is NOT a terrorist group
The framework of international law:
The United Nations (UN) has never declared Hamas a terrorist group. Only certain countries are doing this (USA, EU, Canada and some others), but not international law.
Why? Because Israel is recognized as an occupying power: since 1967 it has occupied Gaza, the West Bank and East Jerusalem by military force. According to International Humanitarian Law, peoples under occupation have the legitimate right to resist, even with weapons, against the occupier.
This is supported by:
- UN resolutions, which recognize the right of all peoples to fight against colonial and foreign occupation.
- Geneva Conventions and the practice of the International Criminal Court (CPI), which do not criminalize armed resistance, provided that the laws of war are respected.
In this frame, Hamas is a political and resistance actor, not a terrorist group.
Judith Butler (American philosopher, Berkeley University): affirmed that “armed resistance under occupation cannot be reduced to terrorism,” and that the debate must include the roots of violence: occupation and colonialism.
Hamas could be criticized for certain acts, but that does not nullify its political legitimacy nor its character as a liberation movement.
Israel has imposed the label of "terrorism" as a propaganda tool to:
1) Prevent the world from talking about occupation and apartheid.
2) Justify massive bombing of civilian population in Gaza.
3) Criminalize any form of Palestinian resistance, whether armed or even peaceful (NGOs, students, journalists).
Calling Hamas a “terrorist” is not a legal fact, it’s a political and media strategy.
Israel, on the other hand, has murdered resistance leaders without trial, demonstrating its contempt for international law.
Palestinian resistance groups are comparable to other anti-colonial movements in Africa, Asia and Latin America.
Hamas is a Palestinian actor with real representation in society, as it won elections in 2006.
The UN has never declared Hamas a terrorist. Israel is an occupying power. And according to international law, resistance against occupation is legitimate. That is not terrorism, it is a people's right to liberate themselves.
The shooter in Montreal was believed to have been an incel, and not a Muslim, an Arab, or an immigrant. So:
1) what the hell are you talking about?
2) why is this tweet still up, without an apology or correction?
3) why should anyone take seriously anything you say ever again?
THIS IS FUCKING SICK ✡️🇮🇱
Israelis are setting up outdoor screens to stream and cheer as entire Lebanese towns are wiped to rubble by the IDF.
These are ordinary civilians, not soldiers or officials, gathering to applaud destruction and death.
BENDEN NE OLUR DEME…
"Bu videoyu izleyen ve bugüne kadar Filistin hakkında tek bir paylaşım yapmamış olan her sayfa sahiplerine sesleniyorum:
Bu videoyu geçebilirsin, ama bu akşam kafanı yastığa koyduğunda o çocukların çığlığından kaçamayacaksın. Şimdi bir hikaye paylaş ve sessizliğini boz."☝🏼🗣️🇵🇸
🚨 WTF?! A Gazan father reveals absolute horror. After Israeli soldiers fatally shot his 3-year-old son, they dragged them into a military vehicle.
He confirms his child died in his arms, and the soldiers callously wrapped the toddler's body in a bag like trash!
Israel is now openly threatening to use nukes against the world.
Ironically, this is exactly why they should be disarmed and their future statehood called into serious question. Why the Zionist project should have never begun.
Violent tribalism + and existential victim narrative is the most dangerous combination possible. And it’s fundamental to Israeli identity.
There are only two possible outcomes- either they rule the world and all bow to their chosenness or they keep picking fights until the whole world turns on them and they are destroyed.
The slippery part is that it’s not just Israel, they have dragged the entire global Jewish population into this adversarial and unconscionable position. And the real power structure of Israel is dispersed across the global network of Jewish billionaires and bankers that support it and represent the true power of the project.
FIFA’s broadcast cameras appeared to avoid showing this moment, likely due to rules around political gestures and protests.
But today, Lumumba covered his mouth and mimed a gun to his head in a powerful protest against the silence surrounding the conflict in eastern DR Congo.
One of the world’s most active crises has displaced thousands, and he used the World Cup stage to make sure people could not look away.
This is what true influence looks like. 🇨🇩👏
@Canon_Event@GivanteK@Alea1actaEst8@aaboom16 No one is criticising the Norwegian celebration. The problem is they only like the Norwegian celebration because they're white. Obviously anyone that celebrates their teams win and damages the city as part of the celebration is fucked but don't equate that with race.
@AnnieMargrock@wakaflakafade@aaboom16 You retarded as mf. The guy said Norway is famous for their sailors. Which is only partly correct, they weren't famous for sailing, they're famous for all the fucked up shit they did after they sailed to whatever place they went to.
Elon joined my call for a global revolution over the Epstein files.
I responded to that with, “You’ll be included in my upcoming Human Rights report on Epstein files and complicity in Gaza genocide through Starlink and X.”
Elon flagged my account so that all my posts are sent directly to /dev/null.
Not enough people are talking about the relationship between Elon Musk and Jeffrey Epstein! We do, but Elon is censoring this content and anyone who posts it.
Can you please do whatever you want to let him see this tweet as I am in X jail. Or better yet, make this tweet one of the most liked tweets ever. Send him the message that he can't manipulate the public anymore.
@wakaflakafade@aaboom16 Sailors?? They're famous for being vikings that slaughtered and raped. They were big time slave traders. They literally did every fucked up thing you can think of.
