But he was asked a dozen times if he would call them a terror group and declined, with increasingly levels of awkwardness each time.

It's an appalling interview, Corbyn came off dreadfully and literally couldn't bring himself to label a group who last month murdered 1000+ people a terror group.

Awful. I can't believe you can watch that interview and come off thinking Morgan was the one to be criticised?
Hamas has it's Murderers, Terrorists etc. No doubt. But ask yourself a question, When a state has been put through repeated atrocities, land grabs, sanctions, no sanitation, no water, no electricity, no home to call your own, absolutely zero future, just misery, displacement and death on the Horizon, Then what do you think are the consequences to all of that, how desperate for revenge would you get when these things are happening on a daily basis to you, every single day of your life, and to your parents and your kids. What you going to do James? Add to that, hardly any international support and the super powers egging on Israel to cause even more destruction and death. What you going to do James?

When people are put through the worst kind of misery that is unimaginable for people like us, when all support is cut off, when there is no hope, then people become desperate, they do desperate things, because nobody is listening, in fact, most people are encouraging and allowing the misery to continue. So, what would you do? Hamas do have killers, murderers, rapists etc, but israel and the international community have enabled this situation by their actions. It's wrong and wicked, but like i said, keep squeezing people, put them in desperate situations, cut them off from the outside world and kill their children, bomb their hospitals, schools etc, take their homes and land. What you going to do?...
