In short, Shadi Hamid's verbal contortions show he cannot bring himself to condemn Hamas as a barbaric sect responsible for the worse act of savagery against a Jewish community since 1945. Even the Arab pogroms in Aleppo, Baghdad and Aden in the 1940s and 1950s did not come close to the brutality displayed by the Palestinians on October 7.

I do agree with Shadi Hamid though that the Oct 7 atrocities cannot compare with the violations Palestinians encounter daily in their 40 minute delays at Israeli checkpoints.
