They aren’t far right or far anything. They are an indigenous justified resistance to occupation with an Islamic outlook and foundation. If you want to support a leftist resistance group there’s the PFLP but they aren’t fighting the colonizers to the scale Hamas is.
Hamas has always allowed elections and asked for it. It is the corrupt [also secular] Palestinian Authority that wouldn’t allow for elections to happen.
I'm sorry, but from what I know of Islam, "Islamic outlook and foundation" = far right. To be fair, I would say the same if you replaced Islamic with "Christian" or "Jewish." Seems to me, without the religious us vs them, this would be a few degrees easier to solve.
