The reason Hamas exists is to fight to free Palestinians from Israel’s tyranny. I know some here will quickly excuse Israel because Hamas says their goal is to eliminate Israel. They have never and will never have the capability of doing this. They are no threat to Israel’s existence. But Hamas or a group like it will exist to fight Israel until Israelis acknowledge that Palestinians have as much right to their own state as Israelis have to theirs.
