    Man, left wingers are bizzare. Why on Earth are they siding with Hamas? I could understand no siding with anyone, condemning both sides, but Hamas massacred over a thousand people. And thats after they execute queer people and oppress women.

      In this article, the interviewed person explicitly denounced Hamas. It might not be the case in other places, but there is room to support the victims on both sides, and denounce the both governments that lead to this terrible situation. Hamas was elected, but then fixed it so they can’t be removed from power. Israeli officials, specifically Bibi, benefited from having Hamas in power to motivate by fear. Hamas has support from Iran because it’s easier to antagonizing Israel through Hamas. Egypt doesn’t want Hamas, they won’t even open their boarders. There are no good guys here. Israel denied a Palestine state from the beginning. Israeli settlers near Gaza are conducting pogroms, clearing out entire villages, murdering Palestinians. https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2023/10/8/israeli-lawmaker-blames-pogroms-against-palestinians-for-terrible-attacks
