No I'm just saying that Israel is more responsible for Hamas than the Palestinians. If Israel wanted to they could stop their oppressive programs and the expansion of their state through settlers. They could take more care when trying to fight Hamas which it's pretty clear they don't right now with the number of civilian deaths and massacres that have happened. You're trying to say instead of resisting that they should try to negotiate, but without the threat of violent resistance if the negotiations don't go through then what reason does Israel have to negotiate? If there's no resistance they can just ignore the Palestinians attempts to negotiate or stall them indefinitely while they continue to push them out of their homes. And yes Hamas is bad and them winning wouldn't be a good thing but it's understandable why Palestinians would support them when the only other option is to lay down and die. And yes their resistance is probably not gonna stop Israel in the long run, only international pressure and sanctions on Israel would actually get them to stop the terrible things they're doing. But that doesn't mean trying to resist is bad cause again the only other option is to lay down and let the Israel state bulldozer over you and your people.
