Hamas' oppressive governance and relentless pursuit of violent methods, at the expense of the well-being and democratic aspirations of the Palestinian population, underscore its brutal terrorist nature, which stands as a roadblock to peaceful resolution and prosperity in Palestinian society.
By diverting significant resources towards military infrastructure and weaponry, Hamas has neglected the development of vital social services, such as healthcare and education, thus exacerbating the dire living conditions, limited healthcare access, and inadequate educational opportunities for Palestinians living under its rule.
