Hamas has called on Israel to allow an impartial international investigation into its attack on 7 October 2023 and has rejected that it killed civilians or committed atrocities.

“The resistance did not target any hospital, school, or house of worship; it did not kill a single journalist or any member of ambulance crews. We challenge [Israel] to prove otherwise,” it said.

In the new document, Hamas said that “Western media and Zionist lobby groups” had launched a disinformation campaign about the events of the attack.

“The Israeli entity promoted a series of lies and fallacies about killing children and raping women, paving the way to proceed with an all-out genocide project that was pre-planned and aimed to erase Gaza from existence,” it said.

    “Resisting” by kidnapping and killing civilians. I mean it worked out great didn’t it? It certainly got the occupying forces out of their country, didn’t it? Great plan. Fucking geniuses.

      Technically yes the kidnapping can be an act of resistance an immoral and illegal one but yes still an act of resistance because the hostages taking was taken in order for Israel to also release kidnapped Palestinians. The killing of civilians is not resistance but people filled with hate for 57 years of occupation is in a mental state where they will comit act of gruesome retaliation and is definitely condemnable.

      There was also military targets during 7 of october

      Good thing we have internet chauvinists like you, that tell Palestinians how to resist genocidal settler colonialism the right way and waste everyone’s time by muting the actual atrocities being commited every fucking day by Israel. Fucking genius.

        Oh do get fucked. The moment the Oct 7th attacks happened, everyone knew that the ordinary Palestinians were going to be slaughtered as revenge. Suggesting it was an act of resistance is pure idiocy. It was pure baiting by one bunch of cunts against another bunch of cunts.

          We expected israel comiting more terrorism in response but never the destruction of almost all of Gaza. And whatever it was expected of not if fully irelevant a gdnocide is never justifiable

          Sure bro, both sides are equally bad. If Israel would not genocide the Palestinians, imagine what Hamas would do to all the poor settlers and occupiers. If “the moment the Oct 7th attacks happened, everyone knew that the ordinary Palestinians were going to be slaughtered as revenge”, the Palestinians maybe just shouldn’t have resisted in the first place. Surely the accountability should not be on the oppressor, but the oppressed. Delete your genocide excusing, occupation supporting hasbara account, please.

            Being oppressed does not give you carte blanche to do whatever atrocities you want. If you disagree with this then you are as bad as the oppressors. Bye.

              Good thing then, I never agreed with that kind of strawman. Have a nice day.
