That's not comparable and you know it. Nationalism without a nation is an ambition. Ethno-nationalism while in control of a nation containing other peoples is oppression and, in extreme cases like the South Africa of the past and present day Israel, Apartheid.
But to answer the question you thought you asked: yes, I am against the violently theocratic government philosophy of Hamas.
Arab doesn't equal Palestinian and Palestinian doesn't equal Arab. To conflate the two is bigotry and ignorance.
That's not true. Especially not when you count the settlers living on stolen land inside the West Bank and planning to do the same in Gaza.
They by definition CAN'T be because Palestine doesn't have any citizens. Because it's occupied territory denied nationhood by its occupiers, Israel.
Jewish people in general? Yes. Jewish (or Christian, or Muslim etc) SETTLERS stealing their land on behalf of an occupying force, though? That's another kettle of ballgames entirely.
"Settling" land already owned by someone else is colonialism and theft, not peaceful coexistence.
It's not Palestinian citizenship when it's still Israel who determines who is eligible.
