It's not only a terrorist organization but the government that is in control of Gaza. Hamas has declared war on Israel and is the aggressor in this latest conflict. The Palestinians that are dying are result of Hama's actions and policies and unwillingness to resolve this conflict. No one is saying that it is moral.
Do you really think Hamas doesn't have a role in trying to resolve this conflict? If so you're lockstep with the Israeli government much more than I am.
You might not like it but Hamas should have released the hostages months ago and committed to an unconditional surrender.
A lot of lives and critical infrastructure would have been saved.
A fundamental part of their argument is to somehow separate Hamas from being the elected government in Gaza and also being popular.
It’s really interesting. We’ve seen this theory pushed to the point of suggesting Hamas is a puppet government controlled by Bibi.
But I think the most telling part is, it makes it clear, their issue isn’t merely with the reckless attacks by the IDF, but they genuinely don’t believe Israel has a right to exist.
Let’s not forget the mass celebrations, belief that the IDF were walking into a trap, and that a ground invasion was impossible.
Then add on that this was going to invoke a larger regional war that has yet to materialize and doesn’t seem to be.
Strangely enough, the same folks condemning Bibi’s barbarism and believe there’s a need for a new government, fight you every time you suggest that Hamas needs to go too. Or even worse, pushing back against the claim that they need to let the hostages go.
