I mean hamas is barbaric but I don't understand what do these Israelis expect? You can't imprison/displace millions of people without expecting any backlash? I'm I crazy to think like this?
If the people hamas brutalized at this festival were politicians of the Israeli state, or even members of their military or police force, then you may have some kind of point. But these were just innocent people, a good chunk of whom weren't even from Israel. Was the Israeli state itself aware that there would be further violence caused by their continued oppression of Palestinians? Definitely, and they aren't the ones who will suffer that violence.
Innocent people who thought it was totally okay to go party and rave on the outskirts of the biggest open air prison on earth, where people are getting massacred daily. Where children get separated from their parents or families daily, if not murdered themselves or burned alive or raped. Where people are given just enough electricity, drinking water and food to experience slow death and suffer.
Literally you have the entire world open, and if all the places to party and rave you choose that? I do not celebrate death, but if anyone to blame, it is themselves.
Hamas has treated their hostages far better than Israel has treated theirs, even though Israel is a recognized state that answers to the international community, and Hamas is a mere militia.
Sounds like "you deserved to get raped for wearing bikini" or something
