    Again: english is my second language, “Politbüro” is literally the German term for “political bureau”. See random german newspaper article to confirm the use of the term “Hamas-Politbüro” in german: https://www.n-tv.de/politik/Hamas-Politbuero-spricht-sich-fuer-Ende-des-Krieges-aus-article24613499.html

    Sorry for the confusion, it was simply a translation error I made. Because when formulating posts in english I might sometimes miss some proper English terms and use german ones by accident. Now please stop with the insinuations, I did not use that word to compare Hamas to communist parties or to “sound smart”.

      Ok. To be fair, it is actually the first time you’re mentioning the German angle and English being your second language, so I had no way of knowing. Also, there are a lot of people online using these terms (politburo, kompromat and the like) in order to cast a subliminally negative light on the subjects being discussed, so I wasn’t trying to be malicious, if perhaps a bit too defensive 😄 My apologies for insinuating that you have a hidden agenda.
