I don't watch Hasan beyond the occasional clip so I dunno what I was expecting, but its fine. It's not really a crazy or unique take, but it does do a pretty decent job of compiling info about the situation.
First thing he does is condemn attacks on civilians and he does it multiple times throughout the video, he doesn't cheerlead Hamas at all. He talks about Israel's apartheid tactics and its far right government and the inevitability of something like this happens when you keep Palestine in the conditions it has been in for the past 20 years. He also touches on the failings of Israel's military and incredibly expensive surveillance program in stopping this from occurring.
The end of the video is a very brief examination of how the two state solution has failed and will continue to fail because of Israel's complete disinterest in it and the US' continued backing of them despite this.
All in all a pretty standard leftist take on the situation. IDK how it in particular changed your mind because what he's saying is what most reasonable people on the left are saying, but if it made you look at the situation with any sort of critical thought I guess that's good op

Thanks.
So it's just a lukewarm take.
I don't want to click the vid because YouTube algorithm will recommend me videos like it.
