What is the deal with Palestine and Hamas? - eviltoast

For mental health reasons, I had taken myself out of most political topics. But lately there seems to be a surge of talk about Palestine and Hamas (forgive me if I spelled this wrong). I do know it’s something to do with land rights, but it also seems to be so much more at the same time. I’m not trying to start any fights. I just want to understand. Thank you.

    I think you need to actually start closer to 1918. When the proto-isreali insurgency heated up and eventually lead to the 1946 bombing of the king David hotel killing 91 civilians and destroying the Palestinian embassy. The proto-isreali insurgency would then leverage this terror campaign to force the two state plan (which was a proto Israeli concept) and remove any plan to make an Jewish state in Africa.

    No one will ever convince me lehi or irgun aren’t in control of hamas, there’s just too many coincidences and actions that actively work against Palestine.

    Plus, you know…
