      Hamas is the main armed resistance to genocide. The reason the genocide started in the first place is because “Israel” is a settler-colony that needs more land and settlers to continue existing.

        This is interesting. Can you point me to some resources on this?

        The conflict intensified on 7 October 2023, when Hamas and other Palestinian resistance groups launched an unprecedented surprise incursion against the Zionist Entity

        Quote from the prole wiki, it does seam like this attack sparked the war. Had hamas not existed there would be no war.

          Sure, had resistance factions not existed it would have just been an unopposed slaughter instead of a war.

            It would have been much more difficult for the US and Israel to manufacture public consent without a reason like hummas. And a decent portion of public consent is very important.

          Al-Aqsa Flood was a response to ongoing genocide and settler-colonialism by the Zionists, the genocide stretches far before then.
