First, I'll say you're right. There's more than two sides. Its a mistake to only highlight the leaders and the fighters. The average inhabitants are primary in my world view.

I shared the long passage because I thought his slide from condemning netanyahu and the right wing of likud to criticizing slogans was important. So I posted a long passage to show the both sides he was criticizing. The second size isn't Hamas, it's social media with a "just asking questions" about Hamas.

Its funny to me that he gets that Likud* is a monster that needs to be banished. And I agree, Hamas emerged as a monster. But he fails to ever say who has almost all the cards. And who has all the power and where that is coming from.

Likud knows they can and will get away with ethnic cleansing. They know they are doing monsterous things. And that Israelis will thank them later. There will be no Palestinians left to blame or thank or codemn Hamas. If Hamas ever returns all the kidnapped, I don't think Likud will stop. Do you?

Do you think what Hamas did on Oct 7th is anything near the scale of what Israel has done since? Israel denies targeting civilians or reporters and yet they seem to just die somehow. Isn't this a horror that exceeds the terrorism of Hamas. We don't have a word for it, but it's worse. And the horror of Israeli control of Palestine, an act whose monstrosity can be hidden because of the power imbalance and the rest of the world pretending like nothing is happening ... Again we have no words. We have no power. We pretend to when we scream "Free Palestine". But we know all we have is sorrow.

* I use Likud to represent their whole coalition. If Likud fails to win the next election, but another right wing government emerges and continues the policy, my analysis still stands.
