I don't care what sort of evil you think you're fighting, as soon as you threaten rape, you're the bad guy. Threatening murder is also awful but like at least there is the concept of killing in self defence. There is no rape in self defence–it is a completely evil act.
In case anyone needs help with this concept.
The entire situation is a dumpster fire. Hamas resorting to random acts of violence instead of a targeted attack dooms their cause. Giving in to terrorism sends the message that it is an effective strategy, encouraging more of it. Israel's reaction is almost as bad. Everyone is being punished for the actions of a few. The antisemitism from people like this hurts the Palestinian cause too.
Hamas is not Fatah. Hamas has one cause - staying in power. And Israeli retribution is exactly how they plan on staying in power.
Hamas has always been a terrorist organisation, they've never had a legitimate wing. They use religion as an excuse for being a vicious murderer.
They are no better then ISIS
Pretty sure bombing refugee camps and humanitarian corridors are objectively worse, as are cutting off all food/water/power/aid to the open air prison they've been running for decades is worse than what hamas' is doing.
Obligatory not supporting attacking civilians, but Hamas can't do much except random acts of violence. They're probably one of the worst armed militant groups in the past 100 years.
