HAMAS and the Arab Palestinian people only plays the defense game when it to their advantage. What HAMAS does is provoke a fight or confrontation. THEN: As Islreal responds to the provocation, HAMAS cries out that Israel using excessive force.
Are you seriously saying Zionist israel doesn't play the "self defence" card when it's to their advantage? The reality is that It's zionist israel that does the provoking, whenever they want to "cut the grass" or "mow the lawn" Palestinian resistance rocket and mortar attacks almost always follow Zionist targeted assassinations or airstrikes against "suspected terrorist targets"
Really? Don't you mean most Western countries. Hamas does not appear on the U.N. SC list of sanctioned organisations

I suspect most countries see HAMAs as a legitimate indigenous resistance movement against a colonial oppressor.
