Would being strangled to death via blockades of food, water, electricity, and fuel for the past 16 years by Israel not count as subjugation?

Hamas no longer aligns with its 1988 charter which calls for the destruction of the Jewish people. Their 2017 charter indicates they are willing to accept the pre-1967 borders of Palestine and that they only "reject recognition of Israel which it terms as the 'Zionist enemy'".

Israel, the apartheid colonialist state as it currently exists, and Zionism which excludes Arabs and Christians from the land they've inhabited for a thousand years cannot coexist with a free Palestine. Hamas does not call for the death of all Jews in Israel, just the destruction of the Zionist state. In their 2017 charter, they explicitly call for a society with no discrimination based on religion and affirm that they are not at war with all Jewish people.
