To your first point, that’s exactly what I mean. They started a war and went and hid amongst civilians. They are the war criminals.
And miss me with all the 75 years ago bit, this specific war started on Oct 7. Hamas picked a fight they knew they could not win and were willing to put all innocent Palestinians at risk.
We can argue about IDF tactics all we want, but the blood is on Hamas’ hands
Ok, I see that my suspicions that you’re unreachable by objective reality and unwilling to consider anything but the narrowest of perspectives were well founded, so I’m just going to stop wasting my time and effort on you now.
I’m a small guy, I don’t go pick fights with giant MMA dudes, because I’m not an idiot. Hamas seems to not be so smart, and are willing to sacrifice all of their fellow countrymen to make a point. I don’t feel bad for them whatsoever, especially when 75% of them support brutal terrorist attacks
Fifty-two percent of Gazans and 85% of West Bank respondents - or 72% of Palestinian respondents overall - voiced satisfaction with the role of Hamas in the war.
These numbers under a highly repressive authoritarian government.
Also, let’s not forget the protests against Hamas in Gaza that were going on in August, 2023.
I mean it went from 53% for armed struggle before to 63% after… it was only after they got their ass whooped that they all of sudden wanted peaceful negotiations and the armed struggle demographic went down
And support for Hamas went from 22% up to 43%, after the attack. Thank you for proving my point further
Edit: how the fuck did this get downvoted hahahaha can you people not read simple charts? Support for Hamas WENT UP AFTER OCT 7 - y’all for real stupid af lol

From your article.

These numbers under a highly repressive authoritarian government.

Gaza Protests Struggle to Gain Traction as Police Crack Down
And then their popularity went UP after Oct 7. So I’m guessing those protestors were really just upset that Hamas wasn’t being violent enough
Not exactly?
