See condemning Hamas is a joke to you. I see people cosplaying as Hamas as Palestine protests. Cosplaying as genocidal maniacs.

Condemning Hamas would have been the smart move for the Palestinian movement. But it's too dominated by hatred to make smart moves. Which is why it's only the young and naive that support it.

I can't take you seriously.

First, Israel has committed war crimes against Palestinians for decades. When nobody plays by the rules there is no point in quoting the rules.

Very few people condone killing civilians or taking hostages. Most people support the liberation of the Palestinian people and peace.

Which is why it's only the young and naive that support it.

Only the naive think that the situation is anywhere near as cut and dry as you seem to imply it is. And only the gullible think any fraction of the population worth mentioning are cosplaying as or celebrating the actions of Hamas.

This isn't being called out, people just looking the other way.

A lot of people will say Netanyahu is a horrible leader. And in all likelihood he'll be gone in the next election. Nobody is willing to call out Hamas, or any Palestinian leadership. So Palestinians will always be stuck with bad leaders. It's why this conflict was inevitable. Hamas would never be removed by Palestinians, they'd be stuck with them forever if it weren't for this current action. Too much support from naive people.

Naive and gullible, like I said. Or, alternatively, just a disgusting person willfully attempting to spread disinformation.
