I'll just copy/paste my comments from the youtube video


People understand that Hamas is a terrorist group. They don't understand the evil committed by the Israeli government/military. He called for Hamas to be eradicated or at least taken out of power. There's very few anywhere in the west that oppose that outcome. It's a little more relevant that the most powerful country in the world (where most of the people watching are from and could presumably take some action) that already has a long history of involvement in the Middle East is funding the already more powerful side.

You claim to want an unbiased account, but your posting history and this comment strongly indicates that you always just want hear whatever combination of words that would keep everyone focused on how bad Palestinians/Hamas/Iran/Arabs/Muslims are and would deflect attention away from any bad acts by Israel/the US/the West.

From what I can see, your version of a "fair" discussion is one that never arrives at what Israel needs to differently, that ignores what will happen to Palestinians at the hands of Israel before that free and fair election happens, and advocating a "demise of Hamas" as if that's something that can be achieved militarily at all, much less at an acceptable cost in terms of Palestinian lives. Essentially a blank check for Israel achieved by focusing on how bad Hamas and their supporters are.
