UN Relief Chief Martin Griffiths told a representative from Sky News on Wednesday that he did not consider Hamas to be a terrorist group.
Asked about the feasibility of Israel’s military goal to eliminate Hamas and disallow the terrorist group from having any governing say in Gaza, Griffiths responded “Hamas is not a terrorist group for us, as you know, it is a political movement. But, I think it is very very difficult to dislodge these groups without a negotiated solution; which includes their aspirations.
“I cannot think of an example offhand of a place where a victory through warfare has succeeded against a well-entrenched group, terrorist or otherwise.”
Do they acknowledge israel is committing genocide?
Is that the double standard you require for Hamas to be labeled a terrorist organization? In order to call Hamas a terror group, you have to acknowledge genocide in Gaza is this correct? In your world, can both be correct?

Not here to play your dumb goal post shifting games. I can say that Israel committed acts of genocide AND I can say Hamas is a terror organization. Can you do that?
No I can’t because the UN doesn’t recognize Hamas as a terror group but as a political movement.
Every resistance group in the past has been labeled as Hamas has been labeled now. And when they came to a peace deal everyone turned around and said they were justified in their struggle.
I won’t hide behind hypocrisy and take a safe moral stance only because of some downvotes. The correct moral position is already obvious. And with time more and more people are starting to turn around to it.
Israel is committing Genocide and Hamas is not a terror organisation
Hamas is a terrorist organization. Fuck you
