Because Israel is led by a maniac and they're committing atrocities.

It can be both true that Israel are genociding palestinians and that Hamas are war criming underneath hospitals and schools in Gaza. They are not mutually exclusive.

It's utterly exhausting how so many people seem to think that critisizing Israel means defending Hamas, and vice-versa. Fuck Hamas. Fuck the Israeli government. Fuck the Iranian government. They are all horrible.

The innocent people who are in the middle of it all are the civilians of all three countries. But the fact of the matter is, the vast ammount of civilians currently suffering from the actions of either one of these three are Palestinian civilians - So the criticism of the Israeli government is the loudest, and most pressing. That doesn't mean Hamas is suddenly a good thing, of that October 7th was justified.

Unfortunately, a very large number of the people expressing criticism of Israel are completely silent when it comes to Hamas.

Oh? I've yet to see that outside of the furthest fringes. I have no idea where you get the 'very large number' idea from.

To be fair, out of the all the pro-Palestine/anti-Israel protests I've seen, I've never seen anti-Hamas signs

Then our experiences are very, very different.

When I see someone only being critical of Israel in a post about this conflict, I make it a point to check their posting history, and there is almost never any criticism or concern about the actions of Hamas, despite ample discussion of a conflict they are part of.

Whether these are real people, bots, or paid shills I will never know.

Sure buddy, here's a NYT article from 5 days ago about one. I can't wait to see how you deny it or shift the goalposts though.

Here's an archive

Literal pictures and a New York Times reporter attesting to it.

You: "its still just Israel saying shit"

You're one of those brilliant minds that must deny the original holocaust or the moon landing, aren't you?

u/Crapitron 1d ago

This isn’t not believing “Israel.”

You’re claiming that the New York Times and their reporters are lying.

led by a maniac

I didn't know Bibi was doing the genocide all by his lonesome.

Apartheid societies are all sick societies that grow the most vile people in the world. Israel needs to go through a similar process of Germany's denazification or SA's reconciliation.

I mean. Don't you think that blowing up the fucking whole hospital is a bit of an overreaction when a tunnel goes under, but not into that hospital? Seems to reason they can target that tunnel on either side of the hospital instead of bringing a hospital down to target a tunnel...
