If you ignore the words “conspiracy theory” that this idiot keeps insisting on throwing out there, and if you take seriously what he admits Hamas knew would happen, then the difference between his position and mine seems to be that I think Hamas wanted this result whereas he thinks Hamas was merely willing to tolerate this result indefinitely. This started as him accusing me of propaganda. It’s ending with him acknowledging that Hamas launched a war it knew would look like this. I know Hamas better than he does. And I respect them more than he seems to. Now that the gap between us is so narrow, I think it’s safe to say he has functionally acknowledged my point. This conversation always takes this same arc. They start out screaming “propaganda” and they end up acknowledging Hamas’ monstrous strategy and cruelty. Dear supporters of Palestinians, there is nothing you can do for Palestinians that Hamas won’t undo. They are just as monstrous and self-destructive and cruel as the Israelis claim. The sooner you understand that, the more help you’ll be to Gazans
