really? you think every good political organization should be in charge of providing education to children and be the gatekeepers of hospital care? that seems like a disastrous idea. i'm certain you would hate the reality of living under such a system.

i don't understand the need morally equivocate at every turn. just because there is good and evil on both sides (as is always the case when dealing with men and women), it shouldn't prevent us from realizing that Hamas is an organization with plainly-stated evil as its objective. that a population actively supports such an organization is indeed an evil thing.
