Why do you think they are right wing?
...
You mean other than the extremist view of religion and implementation of religion running their legal system, their authoritarian control of Gaza, and their belief in racial superiority?

Back in the 60's and 70's Hamas' progenitors were engaged in charitable works which isn't exclusive to the left. Since they go t a taste of power in the 2nd intifada, they decided that terrorism and violence would somehow achieve their goal of eliminating Israel.

Even their recent policy document makes it clear that they religion as the basis for their control.

U.S. and the west sticking their noses into the Middle East
plus inept management of immigration policy are bigger
threats than Islamic terrorism.

Palestinians exporting their terror to all corners of the world.

Terrorism of all forms should be condemned, and totally eradicated. The Far Right terrorist entity such as Base should also be designated as a Terror group in the USA. They are a domestic terrorist group. Thankfully Canada, like several nations including the EU have also recently listed them as such:

The Base, and the Basis for Listing Far-Right Terror Group

Root cause of 9/11 is the same as 1973-74 Arab oil embargo.
And the same reason why the Crusades happened. Some things never change and some peoples never learn. From Britannica:

The Crusades were organized by western European Christians after centuries of Muslim wars of expansion. Their primary objectives were to stop the expansion of Muslim states, to reclaim for Christianity the Holy Land in the Middle East, and to recapture territories that had formerly been Christian.

Now you're backing the Crusades too?

Dude what kind of a ridiculous thread/question is this? and how is everyone suddenly handing out arguments like they have have a 20+ year background in counter terrorism. As someone who has had to interact with both islamists and radical right wingers, which both of them are absolutely under the umbrella of the right wing, I can confirm that if you feel alienated (or a tonne of other things that might impact how you feel about your role in society and this world) you will end up being extremist of some kind. If you actually listen to both sides, you will find that they increasingly share a lot of core values
