It might be more accurate to show the Israeli PM giving bags of money for decades to Hamas, and ignoring the evidence of their plans to rape and dismember a few hostages, before raping and dismembering a few hostages before Israel enters the picture, but otherwise, yeah.
Netanyahu is a psychopath, but that doesn’t make Hamas any less culpable for their raping and murdering. Netanyahu and his right-wing theocratic conspirators have to go, and so does Hamas, hopefully in body bags. The civilian population? They are human shields for Hamas, but I doubt many Israelis are shedding tears for them either. Israelis remember the daily suicide bombings of restaurants and shops by the PLO back in the day. It’s a fucked up situation and has been for decades.
People need to understand that it’s possible to both condemn Hamas, who are a fundamentalist organization that regularly commits terrorism, and acknowledge that Isreal is committing a genocide against the Palestinian people.
If anything the current far-right Isreali government benefits from Hamas because a more moderate faction having power in Gaza would make it harder for them to justify their goal of ethnically cleansing Palestinians from the Gaza strip (and likely eventually the West Bank and Israel proper).
There is no justification for the genocide committed by Israel. No crime committed by Hamas justifies the actions taken by Israel.
But it is also dishonest to suggest that Hamas was merely threatening to harm people. October 7th was a massive, coordinated, heinous attack on innocent civilians.
It was intended to provoke a reaction from Israel, so Hamas is getting what it wants.
That’s not a justification for Israel in any sense at all. Israel is actively engaged in a genocide, and should be stopped. The Israeli war criminals should face prosecution for their crimes.
Hamas is a violent terrorist organization who should be stopped. The Hamas war criminals should face prosecutio for their crimes.
Both things can be true. Saying so does not equivocate or mitigate either crime.

Alright, who has the time machine?
Sorry, it is in the wash.
Oh, yeah, it’s needed that image to understand why i*rael is comiting genocide, now everything makes sense

You are right, but no one is defending hamas here
