So you can absolutely refute the claim that "the people" of Gaza are not subject to Hamas? Ever?

What if they are? That excuses Israeli crimes somehow?

Of course not. I am making no claim, just asking questions.

What if Hamas has as tight a control over the people of Gaza as Netanyahooo alleges? Shall the IDF not seek to rid Gaza of Hamas though they keep the people as human shields? Does Egypt actually wish to allow the people safe passage?

"just asking questions" followed up with a lot of non-proven "what ifs", for which there's nothing but Israeli propaganda for support.

Yep, you're definitely trying to make a case that the Israeli genocide of Palestinians is justified.

If you don't see it that way, you need to think harder about your biases.

So, JZ, no theoretical questions as template to apply to other people/nations for the purpose of exploring possibilities. (Likely because JZ is omnicient, so questions are nuisances, not tools.)

Got it, will remember.

It is a theoretical question equivalent to wondering whether or not the earth is flat. At least flat-earthers provide some evidence.
