No, I'm gonna thank the people who attacked an Iranian embassy. Fucking zionists and genocide apologists really love to jump at the chance to blame Hamas for everything, especially Israel's own fuckups, huh.
Hamas could stop the invasion of Gaza at any time by releasing the hostages and disarming. Instead the Hamas leadership are big chillin in Qatar living the good life escalating the violence every chance they get.
If Hamas hadn't attacked Israel on October 7th, Hezbollah wouldn't have ramped up rocket attacks on Israel in response to the Gaza invasion. Then Israel wouldn't have needed to target the Iranian general helping to fund and coordinate the attacks from Syria.
The middle east is a giant cluster fuck of bad actors being funded by Iran in an effort to destabilize the west and eradicate Israel. The west defends Israel because if they didn't then the surrounding Arab states would absolutely destroy the country of Israel and do their best to enact a second Holocaust of any Jewish people they could get their hands on.
There are no "good guys" in any of these conflicts, especially not Hamas or Iran. Because of Israel, Hamas, and Iran the Gaza civilians are being punished.
Don't say any stupid shit like I'm a Zionist or genocide apologists just because I understand that Hamas doesn't really give a fuck about Palestinian civilians.
I'm going to go out on a limb and assume you haven't heard Netanyahu repeatedly say the hostages aren't the end of it? That they have to destroy Hamas too? And that's a pretty glib statement for the guys currently standing on the wrong side of the border.
Just like the Russians saying Ukraine can end the war at any time with total surrender. Just let them win and do whatever they want then it will totally be over, we swear! There's no way they will continue to kill civilians, occupy land that isn't theirs, and bring in more settlers. /s
The oppressors would love it if any resistance just went away.
I have oppositional defiance disorder. You are a zionist and a genocide apologist, big time.
Then it would be ridiculous to expect Hamas to change tactics for the sake of Palestinians...
And Hamas will do all that as soon as they start caring for Palestinians? They literally have nothing to loose at this point.
Look this copy-pasta again.
