With fighting raging around Khan Younis and in the north of Gaza, a video has emerged on social media showing dozens of Palestinian men detained by Israel.

That’s honestly sad. I understand the need to check whether they don’t have weapons but tying them like this is too much. And then even the recording screams, “see how we dehumanize them.”
I mean, it literally violates the Geneva convention on POWs, even if they are Hamas it’s literally immoral either way
I expect Hamas does the same but also you should never drop to Hamas’s level.
fundamentally “but X does it too” is a whataboutism, Germany did the holocaust, does that mean we should have put the Germans in camps?
Exactly, hence why answer is formulated in a way that we should not drop to others’ level and do something bad because others are doing something bar, as well.
well since the Israeli government was doing it first, you could argue that Hamas is the one stooping down to their level, since the occupation and mistreatment of Palestinians in Gaza predates Hamas
Yes, but they left. The reason why they were in Gaza was so attacks like 7th October don’t happen but they unilaterally left in 2005. Israeli government never has never done a full scale attack like Hamas since 1948.
As much as Hamas sucks, no, only Israel has a proven track record of stripping men and women and others detained with no charge whatsoever and leaving them or humiliating them in prison.
