Yes, Geno. But despite those things, the large uptick in Israeli aggression, i.e., what's happening now, only began on Oct.8. That's when the rate of Gazan deaths immediately went up by 20 fold or more. It is all because of Oct.7 which HRW, I and YOU all agree was a terrorist attack in which Hamas committed war crimes and crimes against humanity.No, Shazi.
The occupation is 75 years old, way older than Hamas.
Hamas is just the latest resistance to the illegal occupation.
It is not a co-incidence.
