Agreed, but thats still no reason to identify with Hamas. I expect from a capable Individual like you to be able to differentiate and form an independent opinion

From the river to the sea has existed a lot longer than Hamas has in in power. A conservative government can't "claim" a half century old chant.

Australia's national animal is a kangaroo. If I draw a kangaroo on the canvas, does it mean I support the dictatorship of Australia? No, of course not. Because Australia doesn't get to own the idea of kangaroos. And Hamas doesn't get to own this chant. This chant is a lot less tied to the views of a conservative government than the German flag it's drawn on.
