Hamas shows resistance is key to break US hegemonic ecosystem. However, its roots can be traced back to the colonial settlement project of Zionism backed by the West.
This project was launched by Western powers some 100 years ago, led by the United Kingdom and later the United States, with the goal of dominating and annihilating the native Palestinian population.
These Western powers have a long history of carrying out such onslaughts across the world. However, what they were unable to comprehend was the unrelenting and unyielding resistance of Palestinians.
Even after 100 years, with all the technological, material, and media power at their disposal, the sponsors of Zionism were completely dislodged in an unprecedented manner on October 7.

Western political logic is unable to comprehend the basis of the unwavering commitment to the resistance of the Palestinian people. This is because they have rarely stood for the battle of values in their history, so their struggle to understand the resistance is not surprising.
They will continue to have this struggle if they continue to look at the situation based on their limited material equations that operate within the paradigm of existing nation-state arrangements.

Nation-states and their alliances are primarily driven by their short- and medium-term national interests, as perceived and pursued by the dominant forces of those nation-states.
Such a political setup lacks the philosophical foundation to offer any hope and arrangement where justice will prevail. Alternate political philosophies like the one stated by Islam, in which global justice is given central importance, are the only hope for the oppressed people of the world.
The current global political order and its institutions are inadequate in safeguarding the oppressed people worldwide. The nation-states that constitute these institutions have divergent motives and interests that are in direct conflict with fundamental human values and necessities.
