Seems like the discourse has broken down to picking sides.

Hamas is a terrorist organization and does nothing to help the Palestinian people. Israel is indiscriminately leveling a city with absolutely zero regard for innocent lives.

Maybe this situation is full of nuance and grey areas that a single tweet or article or comic can’t fully encapsulate.

Hamas is the the elected ruling group of Palestine. Even referring to the current Israeli government and army as Israel, but then making a distinction between Hamas and Palestine is hypocritical.

They "governed" in the gaza strip, yes, but when was the last election exactly? In 2006 they got in power, then they murdered their political opponents and have kept their power through force ever since

Saying that they're elected by and represent the people would be a bit of a stretch
