Original Note:
The post attempts a fallacious "False Balance" or "False Equivalency" argument. Hamas is guilty of war crimes for taking civilian hostages, and for not removing POWs/Hostages from active conflict areas. Hamas attempts to protect themselves using human shields. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/False_balance#:~:text=False%20balance%2C%20known%20colloquially%20as,viewpoints%20than%20the%20evidence%20supports.
