You'd think Americans would be more sympathetic for people fighting for liberty...

Common misunderstanding, Liberty for the rich, land owner class. A lot of people miss that part.

The Palestinians have been living under an oppressive regime for decades and are now being threatened with genocide. Israel is going to raze Gaza and take over West Bank, effectively cleansing the Palestinians from their own land.

Hamas the terrorist organization's behavior against civilians isn't justified, but the cause is legitimate.
