It was the same when reports came out that Hamas was withholding aid from Palestinians. It was unconscionable when Hamas did it for one day, but "a nEcEsSaRY eViL" when Israel did it for 2 months. It's all the narrative, and the power imbalance between Israel and Palestine is so gross when Israel has advanced internet infrastructure and billions of dollars for marketing (foreign relations, hasbara, whatever you want to call it) while Palestine doesn't have either electricity or water.
