      Maybe that’s the one you want to make but it’s not the one I was commenting on.

        Yes it was you were just trying to be manipulative with your answer, hamas are actively homophobic and part of an islamist movement which is incredibly homophobic - pretending not to understand this is absurd.

          I have never claimed that they weren’t those things. You are arguing against what you want me to say, rather than what i actually wrote.

        Sure, you can defeat the strawman argument. But can we attempt at discussing the strongman argument?

          If you want to discuss that go right ahead. I have not made any claim that contradicts that and have no interest in arguing against it. I suggest you do so with someone who has and does.
