Reuters and AP just confirmed a number of those videos, btw.

This isn't about proving a conspiracy or particular people's involvement, though. It's about what happened on the ground. Who was killed, by whom, where? Those are facts, independent of interpretation or agenda. The nature of the documents can be disputed, but the content of them sorta can't be, given that it's just what happened.

It's the difference between gathering videos to suggest it was Bush vs gathering videos to just show that, yes, the twin towers were hit. One is subject to both record and agenda, and the other is just historical record.

It's terrible, unjustifiable and indefensible, but it's completely different from setting out with the intention of exterminating all people with different beliefs no matter where they are located (as Hamas calls for in regards to Jews and "infidels").

The narrative is confirmed by the videos and evidence, not by the documents. I don't really understand your argument.

What does this even mean? People don't care if it's true because it's easy to lie? Doesn't that just make the truth more important?

Certainly possible. In either case then though, the documents are an accurate record of Hamas's plan and execution. Their provenance may be disputed, but a lot of people are acting like the accuracy is, too.

The article literally says that the plans match the tactics and movements seen/recorded in the raid of this kibbutz and others. Dumb for them to bring the documents with? Yes. Still the exact way it happened? Also yes.

The recent Dungeons and Dragons does something similar well. Independence Day is a classic in that vein. Many/most superhero movies follow that formula as well.

A different scale, but a lot of sports movies have a similarly satisfying underdog/comeback story.

Nah, if that were true you'd see lots of moldy spots. After all, it'd be spoiled.
