It's not an eye for an eye though. Israeli atrocities over the decades dwarf what has been inflicted upon them by Palestine and Hamas.

Do we get to go back far enough to the part where israel admitted to funding hamas in 2019?

You guys know this isnt a conspiracy, right? Israeli politicians flat out said this in interviews?
