    Since we are talking about nuance, let me add a bit more. Hamas is different from the bulk of the Palestinian population, and Netanyahu’s right wing coalition is different from the bulk of the Israeli people. Let’s not forget that the Oct 7 massacre happened to a bunch of innocent people attending a music festival. Netanyahu is not popular in Israel. Therefore, let’s not say simply that Israel is bad. I see way too many upvoted “fuck Israel” comments on Lemmy. Just as it is appropriate to consider Hamas separately from the rest of the Palestinians, so it is with Netanyahu and the rest of Israelis.
