So, Hamas is kind of like the HOA for Gaza?

There was an election for a so-called Legislative body TWENTY years ago for Palestine, but because there was no functioning gov't, it was mostly symbolic. Fatah is still the recognized governing entity (not state). In the legislative election, no party got a majority.
If you want to say Hamas is a powerful faction in Gaza, that would be correct. And they may have more influence there b/c they are heavily armed. But they do not "govern" and do not have the consent to govern by a majority of the Palestinians. Never have.
The fiction you attempt to engage in that Palestinian = Hamas, even if true, would not justify the wholesale killing of innocent civilians, including women and children by the IDF. And many Israelis and Jews recognize how these excesses have weakened Israel in the eyes of the world, even among its historic allies.

So you are going with the, I'm going to shoot 5 people then drop my gun and hold my hands up and claim you can't shoot back because I'm unarmed? Don't think that holds much weight.

ah. So you agree that the Palestinians should rise up and help the IDF rid themselves over their Hamas oppressors.

Nope. This is your narrative.

as stated earlier......the IDF served plenty of notice for civilians to evacuate. The IDF isn't the group setting up shop underneath hospitals(which is a war crime).
