Couple that with a low IQ population and you have the equivalent of BLM riots over there.
Israel lost this round in the PR battle.
Hamas knows how to work their allies and their #1 ally is the Jew hating media. I told my Mom days ago, just watch, the media is “Pro israel” for now, give it a few days the tide will turn and their true colors will show and it has. It took the media 2 seconds to side with Hamas and take their story as face value
Sadly, you are right.
Left had this set up so wimpy media and the religious leaders in US will say “we need peace, both sides are so violent over there” to replace “how can Jews sitting at home on their sabbath have been home invaded and slaughtered and taken hostage?”
Quick solution to that sympathy for Jews was a false flag hospital crisis.
