I don't like Hamas but it's entirely the Zionists fault that this organisation exists. They forced Palestinians into subhuman conditions which led to people Embracing religious extremism with a mix of national resistance.

Israel and the U.S. also empowered Hamas in the 80s because they didn’t want the secular leftist PLO gaining any more traction

Yeah they were literally funneling money to the founder of Hamas, this is textbook blowback.

It was an entire thing. Undermine the PLO by by making them agree to utopian plans of which Israel has no intention of upholding on their side, support Hamas in turn so that they win the election. Use this a pretext to justify unconditional support for the Israeli project.
