They have carefully cultivated a tacit rule never to question tactics of radical anarchist groups, like Hamas.

This is why these misguided kids at some of our colleges are celebrating Hamas and threatening Jewish students.

They never question tactics when they should. Hamas are a bunch of dirtbags, and the far left is stupid for celebrating them. And I'm pretty far to the left as all of you know, but I DO question tactics, especially terrorist ones.
