The Rules

  1. Links to news stories from...
  2. ...credible sources, with...
  3. ...their original headlines, that...
  4. ...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”

Hamas as an organization doesn't represent the Palestine people as whole, and an individual Hamas fighter even less so.

While your typical Palestine farmer might not be too fond of all the killing and murdering done by Hamas terrorists, atleast they're killing and murdering the people they perceive to be most at fault for the situation they're living in. Nobody can say, with a straight face, that there's not atleast a kernel of truth behind that belief.

Still - indiscriminately killing innocent civilians is not the way.

Right, but she was talking about the Hamas Fighters.

Uninvolved Palestinians didn't film shit. So they couldn't flip their Phones Horizontal.

She explicitly said she wasn't. She was talking about the civilians recording the Israeli retaliation attacks.

Most videos I've seen have either been recorded by civilians or IDF. I've only seen few from Hamas' point of view.
