Nice strawman, but no. Funnily enough most people in my irl surrounding argue with me because I stand against Israels cruel attacks on Palestinian civilians and they argue about self-defence and October attacks. And they say the same like that I "think Hamas should just be able to murder Israeli civilians".
It's bullshit either way. Just because I think it's horrible what Israel does and how they attack civilians doesn't mean I think it's good that Hamas also does that, and the other way around.
Hamas attacks military bases not civilians. Go educate yourself before both sidesing a genocide. https://youtu.be/Pt_1k7nSv1M
I see someone got banned for mentioning the hostages… so I don't have much to respond. But it's sad you don't care about war crimes if the right ones are doing it.
captured colonisers and IDF are not 'hostages'.
Consider watching the video and educating yourself.
