    Fun fact, in 2006 we had a chance to welcome them into legitimate governance and work towards peace with them.

    Instead we, the western world, rebuffed every attempt they made at being a legitimate government and backed Israel’s blockade and assassination campaign.

    Second fun fact, you can’t bomb an ideology. You can only convince people it’s not right, outdated, or no longer useful. In terrorism this is often done through allowing them to operate as a legitimate political party. It’s a lot harder for them to justify martydom to their rank and file if they have a seat in parliament.

    They may be terrorists but we turned them away.
