It's almost like Hamas would not fire rockets if Israel did not have 2 million Gazans trapped in a prison and the IDH were not backing settler attacks on non Jews in the West Bank
Yes, they absolutely would. Every time Israel has agreed to a ceasefire and two state solution, Gaza has responded with bombs. Hamas’s stated goal is to wipe out Israel and the Jews regardless of their actions.
If you don’t believe me, here are some fun quote from Hamas’s charter:
“Peace initiatives, and so-called peaceful solutions and international conferences are in contradiction to the principles of the Islamic Resistance Movement... Those conferences are no more than a means to appoint the infidels as arbitrators in the lands of Islam... There is no solution for the Palestinian problem except by Jihad. Initiatives, proposals and international conferences are but a waste of time, an exercise in futility.”
”The Day of Judgment will not come about until Moslems fight Jews and kill them. Then, the Jews will hide behind rocks and trees, and the rocks and trees will cry out: 'O Moslem, there is a Jew hiding behind me, come and kill him’”
But sure, keep pretending Hamas isn’t the aggressor, I’m sure it makes you feel better spending so much time defending them.
