That's because they are. People are gonna be mad when you retaliate disproportionately and kill civilians when they retaliate for you colonizing them and killing civilians. Hamas is bad because they kill Israeli civilians and use Palestinians civilians as shields. The general principle is that killing civilians is bad and Israel does by far the most of it.

Hamas is sustained by the idea that Israel wants to destroy Arabs and Palestinians and take their lands. The Israeli mainstream to right wing is sustained by the idea that Palestinians and Arabs want to do that to them. But only one is actually doing it, even if they both want to and that's what sparks the cycle.

If Israel truly wanted to exterminate the Palestinians, don't you think they would've done that at some point in the last 75 years?

And the Arabs definitely want to exterminate Israel. All the surrounding Arab countries have gone to war against Israel multiple times in the past. But Israel whooped their asses every time. The Arabs would do it in a heartbeat if they could, but they're just not capable of doing it.
