Yes, he lays the blame of what's happening to the Palestinians squarely at the feet of Hamas, and not at Israel too.

He accuses Hamas of using them as human shields, but ignores that someone is choosing to drop bombs on them anyways.

He is erasing the decades of Israeli government and settler violence, occupation, and resource starvation of Palestinians and their land, that drives them into Hamas' arms.

There are 2 evil groups at play here, but he is only condemning one.
