I wrote this 11 years ago about Israel & Palestine. I'm deeply pained that it is just as relevant today.
Anyone who claims Hamas is acting "per Islam," is ignorant or lying. Prophet Muhammad's (sa) rules of war reject killing civilians for any reason—ever.

nostr:npub1u3tka63yynzpd40nryz2fsrw39tedrxgfjdxpdtwf4hsr90usxfskpc6ug Quite right. The Quran cannot justify Hamas' current military action - but every single treatise on human rights - as well as international law - does indeed justify Hamas' resistance to the oppressive, murderous colonial power known as Israel. #israel #palestine #humanrights
nostr:npub1u3tka63yynzpd40nryz2fsrw39tedrxgfjdxpdtwf4hsr90usxfskpc6ug you arent condemning the palestinians for being occupied, colonized, interned, imprisoned, murdered, and *genocided* by a massively powerful western-supported and funded project to SPECIFICALLY create conflict in the middle east, are you?
You arent talking about religion, when this is an imminent survival fight for a far less capable force against an overwhelming, US-backed one, right? That would be insane.
nostr:npub1u3tka63yynzpd40nryz2fsrw39tedrxgfjdxpdtwf4hsr90usxfskpc6ug would that be the same prophet who married a 9 year old girl? call me crazy but ascribing greatness to a pedophile seems a bit, wrong to me.
He married her because she was orphan, otherwise noone would take care of her. If course nowadays this makes no sense, but this was 1400 years ago He didn't have intercourse with her.
Ir you want to know what Moses, the Israeli leader, did just open Old Testament on Deuteronomy 20 and Exodus. Sneak preview:
-he killed 3000 of his own people for adoring a cow
-commited genocide and erase the Caanites out of the map (Caanites lives in Israel before Moses people)
-said that anyone working on Saturday should be killed
Etc
Just read Deuteronomy and Exous to know how Moses people act
