Here in Brazil the media keeps talking about the manifesto that Hamas released upon its founding in the 1980s, where they basically call for genocide against Israel. Knowing that Hamas avoided harming civilians during the october attacks, it seems that their aims have changed and that they do not wish for that anymore. As such, is there any public statement from Hamas where they address the allegations of them wanting genocide?

edit: and the media accuses left-wingers of supporting “real terrorists”, while leftists call the people who tried a coup in january 8th terrorists.
