(12,283 posts)what you suggest is called "political theory" it putting for a bunch of political moves that you believe will produce an end result.
If your political theory requires a nationalistic state and that is the enough, then i would say your political theory has worked: Hamas controlling gaza is the epitome of a fanatic right wing racist nationalist state, but it is their state....they are "breathing."
and i would say congratulations are in order.

however you also claim that your for "western civil rights"....well in that part, if that is really true, than having hamas in power is massive failure for your theory. Not only has the "civil rights" gone backward in gaza, hamas is creating an independent society that appears will be working/trading with an equally islamic egypt and iran. Western civil rights will simply not an issue.

On the assumption that your not satisfied with the result (you claim you don't like hamas...), the question is 'what went wrong"...after all we're all familiar with the statement:
Only a fool repeats the same thing over and over again and hopes for a different result
hence anyone who is not a "believer" but bases their belief on actual events, would look at gaza and wonder: what went wrong?
well, are you a religious in your beliefs or are they 'event based"? (a telling sign is the inability of the religious based beliefs to offer alternatives, options, they usually repeat the same mantra no matter what happens)
