Turns out when you trap people in a hellhole, they start to resent the people who put them there, and laud the people who seem to be trying to change that shitty status quo.
Given that Hamas is one of the key reasons why this place is a hellhole, these words don’t explain why the support for Hamas is allegedly raising.
Israel’s claim that Hamas resisting the violence and oppression of Palestinians by Israel makes Hamas responsible for said violence and oppression of Palestinians by Israel, doesn’t ring true to anyone objective, much less the Palestinians whose families and friends are dying to Israeli bombs.

Israel: “I’m the one killing your loved ones for decades, but really you should blame this other guy (Hamas) for giving me the excuse to do it!”
Yeah, I’m sure you’d totally buy that argument too.
Netanyahu gambled with both Palestinians lives and Israeli ones, and lost that bet badly, so now he’s looking to capitalize on the situation to ethnically cleanse Gaza and set up new settlements there, hoping that will be enough to save himself from the political reckoning coming for him internally.

Israel propped up Hamas very actively, in order to delegitimize the PA and prevent a 2-state solution, thinking that they could oppress Palestinians far worse with them under a labeled terrorist leadership, but then they act all surprised pikachu when said terrorist group does the terrorism.

According to the Palestinians, Israel is the cause and Hamas is the response to that.
The history of that area is… horrific, sadly.
