I'm pretty sure Medhi and most of the Zeteo staff disagree with you. Which makes me wonder about the lens through which you have understood the "actual situation with this conflict."

How about I move into your house and send you to an open air prison and surround you with machine gun nests and not allow you to leave and how about I cut your water , electricity off and block any food from getting to you and your family..would you not call me a terrorist or would you say I am somehow defending myself for commiting these barbarities against you?
So, Sam Harris and John Spencer? Harris has already shown that he drinks the Zionist Kool-Aid of Islamophobia. Spencer's boss is the Commander-in-Chief, who has shown that he, like pretty much every POTUS before him, is another in a long line of Zionist manchurian candidates, trained to hate Muslims and pretend they all are terrorists. That's a lens you have chosen. I suggest that there are other more accurate ones. A sampling of which are debating with you in these comments.
they are the children and grand children of the people whose homes & land were stolen from them since 1948 Why did the US not stop the settlers from invading areas of Palestine against the boundaries agreed upon when the State of Israel was create? They are freedom fighters and that is a fact
Hamas has led to a loss of freedom to Palestinians. That’s also a fact.
Cheering on Hamas is as much of a step away from a solution as cheering on the most right wing Israelis.
Debating the language of who is a “freedom fighter” is a big mistake that makes a solution impossible. What we ought to all want is freedom, including freedom from “freedom fighters”.
You seem to have no issue when the Israelis refer to the Palestinians as human animals, yet you get offended if someone calls Hamas freedom fighters? Really?
so if you keep beating someone up for years, are you not permitted to retaliate? If someone raped your sister, mother or you - would you just lie back and say more please? fact is Hamas was elected just as Satanyahu was - both are evil in their own way. I come from South Africa and saw the US & Israel hypocrisy by their support, funding & arming of the white Nationalist Party (many were supporters of Hitler and the Nazis and did not hide the fact) - who are the terrorists here? The USA & Israel and its lawless IDF - in the opinion of the Global South
Your comments will not bring us closer to a resolution. As you say, Hamas is evil. That should be the end of the rationale for calling them “freedom fighters”.
Nelson Mandela was called a terrorist so I will stand by my assertion that Hamas are
freedom fighters. I don't need to resolve anything with you - The World is not freeing Palestine, Palestine is freeing the World - we no longer care what the US actually thinks or does as we know that your economy functions & thrives on getting involved in countries which you have no business being in & in creating conflict everywhere so you can sell arms so job numbers are up and the Dow Jones break all barriers, enjoy Trumpty Dumpty's election come November so the world can laugh at you again
So what do you call the American freedom fighters who were fighting the brits to gain freedom and free their land of the oppressors? Please call spade a spade and so not have a double standard. Throughot history all colonial powers have referred to freesom fighters incorrectly as terrorists since it serves their false narrative. Didnt the south african apartheid regime called the ANC a terrorist group? Actually most countries did and they were all WRONG , just like you are.
So you must think of the American freedom fighters who were fighting against the British as terrorists? Guess what, the Brits called the American freedlm fighters terrorists just like you are calling the Hamas terrorists. The real terrorists are the occupiers. I am sure you would have a differnet point of view if I was occupying your home while you stay in an open air prison.
Freedom is when someone fights the oppressor in this case Israel. This facist government has been oppressing Palestinians for 75 years, stealing their land, muudering their women and children. The world has had enough of this nonsense and barbarity.

If the Zeteo staff and Mehdi agree with “Hamas freedom fighters” they don’t understand what freedom is.
