Look how Fatah can’t do anything in west bank to protect palestinian againdt settlers. It’s Israel puppet.
I’d rather be in the West Bank than Gaza right now so whatever Fatah does or doesn’t do, it’s way better than what Hamas caused in Gaza.
Yeah but no resistance at all is not great either
Hamas didn’t cause anything in Gaza. Israel is causing Genocide in Gaza.

If Hamas didn’t cause anything in Gaza, why was it one of the most impoverished regions in the world even before october?
Firstly, Fatah are being cowardly as hell here.
Secondly, maybe stop posting jpost on this sub because it’s pretty much Israeli state media
I’ll back your jpost ban if you join my aljazira ban.

Blames Hamas for israel committing Genocide.
Are they trying as hard as possible to lose all their public support? Fatah being an israeli puppet regime has never been a secret but they’re not hiding it very well.
This is the best summary I could come up with:
The accusations came in response to Hamas’s critique of the appointment of new Palestinian Prime Minister Mohammad Mustafa, described as a close partner of President Mahmoud Abbas.
Hamas said this appointment was an “individual decision,” claiming that the PA is “being preoccupied with formal steps devoid of substance,” and arguing that the new Palestinian government would lack national consensus.
“And did Hamas consult the Palestinian leadership that is now negotiating with Israel and offering it concessions after concessions, which have no goal other than securing guarantees of personal security for its leadership to receive, and to try to reach an agreement with [Prime Minister Benjamin] Netanyahu to maintain its divisive role in Gaza and the Palestinian arena?” it asked.
Fatah also wondered why they and their families fled Gaza and left the Palestinian people to face a “brutal war of extermination” without any protection.
Hamas has shown increased popularity in the Palestinian street, recording major successes in local and student elections.
According to a poll conducted by Khalil Shikaki during the temporary ceasefire of December 2023, the terrorist group has enjoyed more popularity since the October 7 massacre.

Westbank Side Story.
Remember that Hamas and Fatah were opposing parties in the Palestinian political landscape. When Hamas won the election in 2005, it was very clear who the West preferred. Fatah criticizing Hamas is nothing new, and in fact is in line with what to expect, given western support is conditional on them condemning Hamas.
I feel like this paints Hamas in a much more forgiving light that it deserves. Hamas “won” the election after a violent campaign of intimidation and even then only by a plurality. While Fatah has many flaws, it’s not a religio-fascist organization prone to arbitrary violent cruelty. Yes, Fatah criticizing Hamas is nothing new, but more because they’re fundamentally opposed groups than Western preferences.
Is this true? Where can I read about this intimidation campaign?
It seems to be inconsistent with election monitoring statements at the time.
It seemed obvious to us and other observers that the election was orderly and peaceful and that there was a clear preference for Hamas candidates even in historically strong Fatah communities. Even so, we were all surprised at the enormity of the Hamas victory.
Thanks there is so much misinformation flying with respect to this conflict it can be hard to make sense of things. But the fact that several respected authors I had read on this election did not mention it made me skeptical.
You’re a liar.
In the 25 January 2006 Palestinian legislative election, Hamas won 74 or 76 seats of the 132 seats in the Palestinian Legislative Council, an absolute majority. Fatah only won 43, four seats went to independents supporting Hamas.[187] The elections were judged by international observers to have been “competitive and genuinely democratic”. The EU said that they had been run better than elections in some member countries of the EU.

It’s sad you have all those upvotes while spouting lies, but it’s another reason why what’s upvoted is not necessarily correct.
Maybe the upvotes have nothing to do with the statement about how Hamas was elected, which is frankly not that interesting, and everything to do with the fact that the commenter correctly identified Hamas as a religio-fascist organization. You can disagree without calling someone a liar. It is more conducive to conversation to assume that someone is mistaken or has different information than you do. Calling someone a liar is contrary to the spirit of good faith debate.

Lol, what? If someone is lying, then calling them out on it is good for debate.
Just going along with it is bad for debate. You got things backwards, bub.
It’s okay, though. I suspect you’re just a tribalist who twists his head in knots to do whatever will make you look good in front of the tribe.
I see it all the time and don’t expect more from you people at this point.
No, calling someone a liar is making an assumption about their intentions, which, in most cases, you do not know.
Sure, when you hear false statements from a public figure all the time, like Trump for example, you can eventually have enough data to conclude that he is a liar. Do you have that kind of data on the commenter you replied to? No? Well, then it is more appropriate to assume they are mistaken. At least in English, calling someone a liar is very, very aggressive.
Hey man, believe whatever you want and discuss however you please.
I disagree with what you’re saying and stand by my previous assertions.
Have a nice day.
Tough guy calling people names while hiding behind a keyboard. I loooove meeting guys like you in real life, LOL.
Hamas was a protest vote because Fatah is basically letting israel govern and terrorize you.
As we can observe from the West Bank, Fatah lets israel do terrorism in hospitals and helps israel arrest anyone fighting back against the illegal occupation.
