I’m in the US.
I haven’t discerned a pattern, by the media, in the titling of the horror currently underway.
I’ve seen Al Jazeera use both phrasings. I haven’t determined that other media sites are hardlining their terminology either, but I notice the difference as I browse.
Maybe it doesn’t mean anything, but these days people seem extra sensitive about names.
Hamas is the organization that runs gaza. Theyre the largest political party in Palestine, they collect taxes, and they have an army. Imagine if the US Army was on the election ballot, and ran the East Coast.
Its essentially the same thing, just “Hamas/Israel” reminds you of what Hamas does, and “Gaza/Israel” is trying to erase that.
They have not allowed an election to be held in 17 years. They’re no more a “political party” than the Taliban.
Yeah thats true. Political group maybe? Not exactly sure how to label them.

That sounds like a good label
