Palestinian Hypocrisy

While I sympathize with the Palestinians and their plight, I also have reservations regarding their political stance. Local and international demonstrations in support of the Palestinians condemn Israel for their over-the-top response to Hamas’ killing of innocent Israelis, and the taking of hostages. However, I do not see any condemnation of Hamas, a call for their release of hostages and any protest against the continued Hamas leadership of the Palestinians. Continued Palestinian hypocrisy in this regard tempers my support of their cause.
