    Hamas didn’t exist at the start of the conflict actually. They formed in response to and with funding from Israel in the 80s and 90s.

        And I think restricting context and acting like anything started recently is an inaccurate way to frame what’s going on. This conflict has been going on far longer than a week. Wars don’t just pop up out of nowhere, they are based on context from before the war.

          Yes but then you get to honor of deciding who is right and who is wrong as well. No one has to right to tell someone which is the case.

          Also this is a different level than what has been happening for at least a decade.
