Saying the Israel/Palestine conflict is “complicated” is the best way for people to sound smart without saying anything meaningful. Okay, if it is complicated do you mind explaining how?

generally speaking historically hamas treats palestinians like shit. isreal can suck a dick tho too and israel is obviously significantly much worse than hamas. that’s only why it’s complicated because palestinians need better than hamas. if hamas won then palestinians would still be treated like ass, but now palestinians are uh… so they’re even worse off… i guess it was more complicated in the beginning before israel really just went even more absolutely psychotic…

Yes but that can likely be traced back to Israel working to bolster Hamas’ popularity within Gaza prior to their election where their opposition was still radical but not religious extremists the way Hamas is
