The Unwavering Support for Hamas: A Moral Blind Spot
The horrifying scenes emerging from Gaza have done little to deter the unwavering support Hamas continues to receive in the West. How difficult should it be to condemn a group responsible for the brutal murder of a baby and a toddler—strangling them, mutilating their bodies with rocks to stage an airstrike, and then parading their remains in locked coffins, surrounded by cheering crowds, with propaganda material stuffed around them? Apparently, very difficult. The Prime Minister, despite his position, managed only a carefully worded response, saying he was “deeply saddened” by the deaths. His statement, however, notably avoided naming the perpetrators or outright condemning their barbaric actions. Yes, there really are people who are just plain evil. Every person who has ever chanted “from the river to the sea” should immediately denounce Hamas and apologize for being an accessory to pure wickedness Amnesty International followed a predictable pattern, stating that “Hamas’s release of bodies of four Israeli hostages” was “a heartbreaking reminder of the urgent need to immediately release all civilian hostages and Palestinians arbitrarily detained.” The organisation’s ability to craft a statement that turns the murder of children into a broader political plea against Israel demonstrates the dark art of false equivalence, where lawful incarceration of jihadist murderers is equated with the slaughter of innocents. The United Nations' position was no less troubling. Rather than unequivocally condemning Hamas, UN Special Rapporteur Francesca Albanese chose the day the bodies were returned to urge Spain to block American arms shipments to Israel. This reluctance to speak out against Hamas is not confined to the realm of international diplomacy or human rights organisations. It is also present in our own communities. Many reading this will likely know friends, colleagues, or acquaintances who have been outspoken about Palestinian suffering but have remained eerily silent when it comes to the grotesque slaughter of Jewish children and the desecration of their corpses. One of the most troubling aspects of this silence is the lack of condemnation from within British Islamic communities. In a discussion last week, a Muslim friend despaired in a text message, asking, “Which Imam in Britain called [Hamas] out?” Where, indeed, is the true moral voice of Islam in Britain? Where are the "not in my name" petitions? With Britain’s Muslim population growing, moderate voices must be a source of hope. Yet they are often subjected to intimidation and immense social pressure, making them far fewer in number than one might expect. A poll conducted last March found that 46% of British Muslims sympathise with Hamas—a figure identical to the percentage who believe that Jews wield too much power over government policy. If the atrocities of October 7 taught us anything, it is that ignoring a problem does not make it disappear. Eventually, the enemy will find a way through the fence, and then it will be too late. It is imperative to support those who uphold our shared values while confronting and rejecting the quiet endorsement of Hamas, so easily recognised in the silence of its sympathisers.
