Completely agree, but I wonder what's gonna happen if she dies or if she gets captured by Israel. Hopefully that will make things move.

"Rima Hassan? More like Rima Hamas" - Israel after she dies, probably

You're joking but she's been labelled as a Hamas supporter because she denounced both Israel and Hamas' crimes, and provided evidence that the armed struggles of Palestinian was justified by international law.

She's one of the only people I'm aware of that publicly exposes the complexity of the situation.

There are far-right people who actually give her that nickname here. Including one plausible presidential candidate.
