Both words actually have a meaning, "hamas" means "enthusiasm", and "fatah" means "conquest" or "revelation".

Heh. You're kidding right ?

We're defending the rights of the oppressed minority against the Jews, and that oppressed minority that unites under the party "conquest" ? Seriously ?

If this is your name, how the hell would you defend the idea that palestinians are just trying to live independantly ?

It doesn't work like that. "We" are not just the oppressed minority, we are a people with history - you have to appeal to national pride.
