For a couple thousand people that make them up, not hundreds of thousands of civilians
Hamas is a terrorist group. What do they have to do with a sovereign nation starving thousands of people?
Hamas has an entire humanitarian arm. It's one of the main reasons they have as much power as they do.
Several countries actually differentiate the separate parts of Hamas as well, recognizing that the humanitarian aid section is separate from the portion that fights instead of lumping everything together as if everything is black and white.
Stop defending this by always using Hamas for everything. It's ISRAEL that's committing war crimes, cutting off water and food, killing journalists, UN workers, children, women AND men, wiping out entire families, starving them to death...
It's become literally a meme: but Hamas this, Hamas that,... Only it's not funny. The world doesn't care anymore. THAT'S how far you've gone. This is their holocaust now and in the long run, nothing you say or do will wipe that out.
@Zippit it's not funny, and in that filthy conflict, #Hamas has no moral high ground.
Or have you heard of Israelis kidnapping Palestinian Women, Children and Aid Workers in retaliation?
I've yet to see credible evidence of that.
Case in point: Hamas is a #SuicideCult and they don't just loathe in self-victimization but use it shamelessly for propaganda.
Because no matter how one wants to spin their shit, they either are a #suicide #cult, #UsefulIdiots and/or both.
I can't even with you. I cried when I saw those hostages taken and being murdered and am worried every day now we'll start seeing those grueling beheadings. I'm human just like you. I'm not greenlighting what they did.
Just stop killing civilians. That's all we ask, treat them with the same dignity that you treat your own, maybe that way, you could've garnered some sympathy for your cause. Israel has gone too far with their vengeance, bloodlust and war crimes.
You selectively forget you're at war with Hamas but aren't hurting them, but killing check 10.000 civilians against what? 5 Hamas members dead and 5 hostages freed (1 by Israel)? In what reality does that number justify the killing of so many civilians? In what reality can't you see the long game being played here?
israel has been known to kidnap Palestinian children and women and imprison them without charges since long before Oct 7. Have you not followed this conflict at all?
Especially now israel has kidnapped more innocent Palestinians than ever, mainly on the west bank where Hamas isn't even present.
