Many people, including you, keep bringing up some killings, illegal settling and other crimes, that Israel allegedly does at West Bank. This appears to present Hamas actions as some kind of revenge for Israelis killing West Bank citizens. However, this is not really the case. Hamas themselves killed West Bank/Fatah Palestinians:


Strangling Necks’: Abduction, torture and summary killings of Palestinians by Hamas forces during the 2014 Gaza/Israel conflict highlights a series of abuses, such as the extrajudicial execution of at least 23 Palestinians and the arrest and torture of dozens of others, including members and supporters of Hamas’s political rivals, Fatah
