Bajor is probably the closest I think you'll get, and on that his opinion is clear.

And I don't agree with Israel, I acknowledge that hamas's attack has provoked a broader invasion and a state change in their relationship.

There's not always a good guy and a bad guy, and Hamas is no fucking boy scout group.

For your dumb analogy to make any sense you'd have to pretend Picard supported the Cardassian occupation, like the US which LITERALLY finances the entire Israeli colonial project

If the US had the same policy toward Israel as the Federation had toward Bajor, the Israeli nazi state would've collapsed decades ago

Hamas is no fucking boy scout group.

The Palestinian resistance is currently defending 2 million men, women and children from a depraved army of butchers, rapists, grave robbers and organ thieves

You're goddamn right they're no boy shouts, they're a bush-wacking guerilla army taking nazi scalps

Now go fuck yourself nazi

Jesus Christ.

Picard was on the side of Bajor... I'm not trying to paint him in any other light.

This whole server is fucked, the admins can feel free to ban me for life.

If Hamas wasn't there, a different militant group would be in the lead against Israel. Even on Oct. 7th several militant groups attacked Israel, not just Hamas. So they might not be seen as a "good guy" but they are fighting on the morally correct side.

Israel frames this war as a fight against Hamas but it is against Palestine as a whole. Israeli politicans have funded and propped Hamas up specifically because of their extremism, to divide Palestinians, reduce Western sympathy, and make a more palatable enemy to slaughter.
