    We can only infer and guess as to the organizational goals at play. We can line up the incentives for their actions, as I did two posts up, and say their behavior is consistent with these incentives.

    And I thank you for that exposition, however cynical it does give some reason to what appears madness.

    But if it comes to serving the people of Palestine they aren’t really doing that, rather the opposite.

      Hamas is not working in the best interest of Palestine civilians, they are working in the best interest of Hamas - Which is a fascist theocratic military organization with goals of ethnic cleansing.

      The only issue at question is why did the Gazan people feel that Hamas was their best option in 2006 when they were elected into office? I don’t really know, I can speculate that the hopeless turn to extreme religious war mongers for even the promise of a better future, or failing that the promise of a fight as they are erased from history… some people, when they have no hope, will hold on to revenge.

      Since 2006, and the failed coup in 2007, Hamas hasn’t held any elections and runs as a dictatorship.
