So yeah, Hamas is bad, I don't think anyone here really disputes that.

Suppose you are Palestinian though. Israelis have turned your home into an open air prison, cut off your electricity and water. Cut off your access to medical care and stopped foreign aid from reaching your family. Then they come to evict people violently so you protest, they teargas you, you seek refuge in a Mosque which they also teargas. Then Hamas fires rockets that hurt and kill people. Then the Israelis attack the open air prison you live in. They bomb your apartment building because Hamas MIGHT be operating out of it in some capacity. Part or possibly all of your family die, your friends and neighbors die. Regardless of your opinion on Hamas or it's political stances (abhorrent as they are) they are the ones fighting the IDF, you want to defend what's left of your home and it's people, so you go find some militants and start fighting.

It's never quite as simple as anyone would have you believe. If people are killing my friends, family, and neighbors I'm going to fight them regardless of who it is I'm fighting alongside.
