'netanyahu created hamas' is a hasbara talking point that removes palestinian agency and de-legitimizes resistance by framing it as an israeli puppet show.
hamas emerged from the material conditions of occupation and blockade
allowing qatari money into gaza and exploiting hamas/pa divisions is standard colonial divide-and-conquer, not 'creating' resistance.
the 'playing into israel's hands' argument is just more tone policing. colonial powers will paint resistance as terrorism regardless of rhetoric.
respectability politics doesn't stop genocide. if palestinian armed resistance against iof soldiers is legitimate, then saying 'kill zionists' online isn't 'giving israel propaganda', it's just being honest about what legitimate resistance entails.
applying 'war crimes' frameworks to resistance while actual genocide is happening is liberal legalism that judges the oppressed by their oppressor's rules. international law was written by imperial powers to protect imperial interests.
this whole framework of calling on moral realism about death penalty being 'objectively wrong,' insistence on fair trials, tone policing resistance rhetoric, defending zionist family members as 'just misled' is just liberal moralism with anarchist aesthetics. there's nothing anarchist about supporting state institutions (courts, prisons) or prioritizing israeli propaganda concerns over palestinian liberation.
