I'd expect them to take actions that won't make sure there will be easier to radicalize people against them.
Their actions are the biggest advertisement for enlisting terrorists that will fight them 10 years from now.
What differentiates Hamas from the Israel government that causes you to describe it as a terrorist organization and the Israel government as not?
The definition is killing civilians to cause political change.
Israel, by many governmental officials descriptions, is trying to cause maximum damage to Gaza in retaliation, including the deaths of a civilian population. Most of whom, notably were too young to vote for Hamas.
Israel has repeatedly bombed hospitals run by MSF, schools, and ambulances. They always claim Hamas was there, and yet, the MSF doctors state they weren't. The schools weren't likely housing Hamas, and when journalists check the ambulances, find no weapons or military uniforms.
Let me ask you this: what could Israel do that you wouldn't think is justified?
Please, answer that. I'd be willing to bet I could find an example. And if there is nothing, then I know you're an extremist that is okay with genocide.
The Palestinians tried a peaceful protest in the march of return two years ago.
The IDF slaughtered them, intentionally targeting medics.
Bibi used coded language in a speech in Hebrew calling the Palestinians amaleks. God ordered the Jewish tribe, in the old testament, to slaughter the amaleks man, woman, child, and beast of burden.
CNN was allowed a journalist to embed with the IDF, but only if the IDF was allowed full editorial control. FULL control.
At this point, you not knowing this is likely you 'just trying to ask questions' in a bad faith effort to justify genocide, which you obliquely admit to in another comment. Israel is still not allowing food or water in.
