Hamas is no friend of LGBT people. The group’s co-founder called us “perverts,” etc. (For that matter, the Saudi and Egyptian dictatorships, both U.S. allies, are also LGBT-unfriendly.) But the fact remains that Hamas is part of the picture. So they have to be part of finding a solution to ending for Gazans the Israeli occupation, blockade, illegal settlements, drone flights and constant military presence.
