Of course the YouTube comments are disgusting. Hamas are horrid barbarians for this, that is not excusing Israel’s history of human rights violations. But there is nothing about this act that is justifiable.

What fucking support did they have?
In terms of money maybe something like this:
Likely won’t be the last.
- In terms of „soft power“: they lost a lot of goodwill with politicians worldwide. No sane politician supports the killing of innocent civilians.
- Hamas also successfully silenced Israelis that oppose their own government. This probably what Hamas wants though.
- Since you are using a cornered animal metaphor: how the fuck did those foreign civilians corner THIS animal? And spare me your „but Israel“ excuses - those killed tourists didn’t have to do ANYTHING with this.

Do you know what a Pyrrhic victory is? It’s what the Hamas and their supporters are celebrating right now.
The only thing they have achieved is burning bridges of support worldwide, which will not be rebuilt

This shows how one sided this conflict has been…
Israel would never Palestinians to have a mass gathering a mile from the border, but when it’s on the Israeli side people from all over the globe showed up for a music festival.
Because everyone thought no matter how terribly Israel treated Palestinians, the Palestinians couldn’t do anything in response.
I guess they never heard about how dangerous a cornered animal was, they thought the Palestinians would just take all the human rights abuses in silence.

Their only other alternative is to stand by while “settlers” under the protection of armed IDF kept crossing into Palestine and kicking them off their land.
In this situation it was a Pyrrhic victory or slow annihilation.
There’s no outcome where they win. So they can lay down and wait to die, or die fighting.
Put a human and those conditions and they will act like a cornered animal eventually… It’s basic psychology, it’s been there longer than we’ve been hominids. Opossums and those feinting sheep are the only mammals that don’t have that instinct.
What fucking support did they have?
