A few things....
- The tweet is from this guy:

To call him "against Trump" is completely divorced from reality. I mean, you realize that when a conservative journalist quotes an unnamed source "in the administration", he's talking about the fucking Trump administration, right? Anti Netanyahu? Only to the extent that he doesn't think the US should be as involved in Israel as it is (he says the same about Ukraine fwiw)
- I don't give Hamas the benefit of the doubt, but Israel/Bibi doesn't deserve it either. Bibi has broken multiple agreements before (this is just a fucking fact). Fwiw, I don't give the Trump admin the benefit of the doubt here either. They're not a trustworthy source of intel in 2025 either.
- The ironing should be lost on no one, that you've been shown high resolution, photo journalism quality images of damage to Gaza before and questioned the image from every angle (most of them ridiculous) before dismissing them as valid, but accepting this edited video, the last 2 clips of which are filmed on what I can only assume is some sort of a Russett potato with wings and show absolutely no detail or cohesion beyond "2 guys left this group of six and now we cut to a video of 2 guys in an area completely indistinguishable at this video quality and bang"
The difference here isn't that we're giving Hamas the benefit of the doubt, it's that we give no one involved the benefit of the doubt but you simp for every scrap of social media content pumping Israel's tires. When we question any of it at all for any reason you lose it.
