What Kind of Government Has Hamas Given Gazans?
(JNS) Bassem Eid - Hamas's repression, inspired by a harsh interpretation of Islamic Sharia law, is brutal. Women require the presence of a male guardian to travel outside their homes. LGBTQ+ individuals face torture and execution. Children under Hamas rule are brainwashed into believing that Israelis and Jews, including civilians, are evil and must be destroyed - even at the cost of "martyrdom." Hamas is turning the Gazan people into cannon fodder for its endless wars. Their core interest is controlling the Palestinian population, accumulating wealth and armed support from terror states like Iran and Qatar, and waging war on Israel. It's time to set Gaza's people free by dismantling Hamas for good. The writer is a Palestinian peace advocate, political analyst, and human rights pioneer who founded the Palestinian Human Rights Monitoring Group in 1996.
