"I'm sure Israel loves having the bogey man of Hamas"

Cripe sake. Israel isn't the one using HAMAS. Palestine is.

Some are seriously defending a terrorist jihadi org like HAMAS working with Palestine, just take out the evil boogeymam Israel??!!!
Gdammit.

Read how Palestine treats its own people. Women, children, LGBTQ, journalists..etc.
They have lowered the value of these citizens in their country so why would they be so torn when HAMAS use them as shields, then blames Israel when shit goes down.

Freeing these oppressed groups of Palestinians from their own govt would be a more worthy cause to take up.

Then kick HAMAS out. Defund & sanction who's funding the jihadi terrorist group, HAMAS

There's a deeper more urgent call weighing behind the headlines of 'Israel is being mean'.
Wtf ever 🙄
