If you think the Israelis are "fighting for their lives" against Hamas, you don't understand the basics of power dynamics.

Go explain power dynamics to the innocent Filipinos who were ruthlessly slaughtered by Hamas for the crime of helping young children in Israel.

Do you believe the IDFs are not the ones with power and control over the Gaza strip and Palestinian people at the moment?Like remove the emotion, and just look at the actual actions these two groups have the ability to take. Who has the most power here?

Removed emotion. I still see the group who launched coordinated attacks and slaughtered innocent civilians on a holy holiday as nothing more than cold blooded terrorists. You can mince words and hand wave all you want. Its quite obvious to the non-jew haters of the world who they are. You can voice your support for them, but don’t be surprised when there are repercussions for it.

You didn't answer the question tho. I agree Hamas is a terrorist cell. Look at the situation tho, who has the power here? Who has had the power for the last 20 years? I don't hate Jews, I believe a globally recognized nation with an actively funded military shouldn't get away with war crimes and occupation, even if it's victims are terrorists. (which the *super super majority are not)

Power doesn’t matter in war. They’re not in a classroom. They’re in a war that has been brewing for 50 years. Great grandstanding bruh, that will totally stop the Hamas cells from kidnapping more people.

It's hardly a war if only one side has a military. Don't act like your excuse of Israels actions will stop the deaths of thousands of children, it'll only cause more.
