It's ugly, but, so is foreign occupation. Reality of the situation on the ground.
Gaza hasn't been occupied since 2006.
Whatever has happened since then has been in Hamas's control. They could have built an economy, helped their people. They prefer to tilt at windmills, fire rockets at Israel in an attempt to get them to respond, sacrificing their people to raise funds from the Saudis.

I may loathe Israel's position generally but in terms of murdering Palestinians Hamas is worse.
