Sadly Israel is too powerful right now, but hopefully one day the genocide will stop! (lemy.lol)

If you haven't spent the last decades condemning Israel and only came to condemn Hamas, then you aren't critiquing needless murder. You are condemning Palestinians for resisting.

If you condemn needless murder, you would be concerned about needless murder when it is done by anyone, not just Palestinians. Otherwise your issue is with the Palestinians, not murder.

I absolutely am concerned about murder done by everyone. That includes Israel. I have condemned then before, but not often because I haven't heard of them often. But my past actions or lack thereof still doesn't impact whether whether Hamas's actions are right or wrong, or whether I should say that. If you think it should, you'll need to make a better argument than just restating it again and again.
