The goals and principles of Hamas and Al Qaeda are vastly different. Are you saying they are the same because they are both Islamists? Because the one thing that can be certain about religion, is that it is never really that uniform. Saudi, Iran, and Indonesia are both Islamic country, but they are vastly different. So is Hamas and Al Qaeda. Hamas' seems to be more of a local resistance group.
I have not condoned what Hamas has done, but I have condemned Israel's actions. One can do the latter without being forced to condone Hamas. But I will say that I refuse to blame the deaths of Gaza people on Hamas, as Israel and America tries to. That is cowardly and stupid.
