In what possible world is Hamas this careful entity that’s concerned about their credibility and standing on the world stage
In this world.
It's well-documented by NGOs and even the UN and WHO that the Gaza Health Ministry's counts tend to be accurate, precisely because it behooves Hamas to be able to back up their accusations of Israeli killings with solid data. The data they release includes names, ID card numbers, sex, and age.
Hamas is one of the primary entities ensuring the continuation of the decades-long slow genocide of the Palestinians
"Nat Turner is one of the primary entities ensuring the continuation of the decades-long slow genocide of the slaves."
Obviously this is not a perfect comparison, but I'd love to hear what exactly you think Hamas could do to end the Israeli murdering of Palestinians? Israel kidnaps, tortures, rapes, and murders Palestinians in the West Bank, and Hamas has no authority there.
That’s why Likud has historically given them so much aid and support.
