Perception Bias: The Blindness of the Left

The left exhibits a consistent reluctance to confront the ideologies and actions of Islamist organizations like Hezbollah and Hamas. This avoidance stems from a fundamental conflict between the left's commitment to human rights and the opposing goals of Islamist groups.
