In the last few days, a significant number of countries have announced their decision to recognize a Palestinian state. At the same time, the leaders of these countries have repeatedly condemned the attacks of October 7. Can you see the problem here? The two positions are logically incompatible.<\/p>\n
It makes no sense to repudiate the actions of a group like Hamas as \u201cterrorism\u201d and then cave in to their demands on statehood. And \u2013despite what you might have read in the western media\u2013 the explicit goal of the October 7 attacks was the creation of a Palestinian state.(More on that later) So, yes, condemning Hamas\u2019s methods while giving into its demands appears to be hypocritical.<\/p>\n
But is that what\u2019s really going on here or are many of these countries simply acknowledging that Hamas is not a terrorist organization at all but a national liberation movement that is justified in defending its land from foreign occupation? (According to Grok\u2013 As of September 23, 2025, only 10 countries have designated Hamas as a terrorist organization. The designation is basically a hoax to propagandize western populations) Aren\u2019t these nations simply admitting what reasonable people have known from the beginning, that oppressed people have the right to self-determination (including armed resistance) in cases of colonial domination, foreign occupation, or alien subjugation. These rights are guaranteed under international law.<\/p>\n
So, these leaders are not hypocrites; they\u2019re just acknowledging the \u201crightness\u201d of Hamas cause, which is why they are throwing their support behind an independent Palestinian state.<\/p>\n
And in case there\u2019s any dispute about \u201cstatehood\u201d being Hamas\u2019s primary objective, here\u2019s a short video of Hamas\u2019s former military chief Yahya Sinwar underscoring that very point:<\/p>\n
\u201cWithin a limited period of months\u2014which I estimate will not exceed one year\u2014we will force the occupation to face two options: Either we force it to implement international law, respect international resolutions, <\/strong>withdraw from the West Bank and Jerusalem, dismantle the settlements, release the prisoners, and ensure the return of refugees, achieving the establishment of a Palestinian state on the lands occupied in 1967,<\/strong> including Jerusalem; or we place this occupation in a state of contradiction and collision with the entire international order, isolate it in an extreme and powerful manner, and end its integration in the region and the entire world, addressing the state of collapse that has occurred on all fronts of resistance over the past years.\u201d SuppressedNews @SuppressedNws<\/p>\n
