Look. I don't support Hamas in the same way that I don't support the Israeli government. They're both basically terrorist organisations at this point. Shelling Gaza with no regard for civilians and children is just as bad as targeting children and civilians for the purposes of a terrorist attack. Your own article disputes what you've said. But if you've made up your mind that one group is worse than the other and therefore one group deserves to be punished (as it would appear based on your comment), then I don't see the point in this discussion.
This thread has quickly become less about scammers (as you first claimed) and more about giving a voice to terrorist organisations, which I don't necessarily agree is a good thing but is something that won't be stopped by deleting a channel. More will pop up. Disenfranchised people who have been hurt repeatedly will act out. Relieving them of an avenue to voice their opinions doesn't stop them and it often makes things worse.
Nobody is forcing you or anyone to use telegram. You've gotten increasingly more upset (it would seem based on your replies) that I am not automatically condemning Hamas or Telegram's CEO and you go out of your way to ignore my questions about privacy when it concerns private messages. Additionally you are hyper focused on the Hamas channels angle as if it's the only thing in your original post.
Israeli's aren't the only civilians dying in the crossfire between Hamas and the Israeli government.
