      Not an any practical level.

      It certainly hasn’t been weaponized by them to deflect criticism of their actions by international observers, like Israel has been doing.

      I haven’t really seen any accusations that being anti-Hamas (the political entity) is Islamophobic, only that being anti-Palestinian (the people) is, which is true.

      Contrast that to Israel and its supporters very openly pushing the narrative that being anti-Israel (the political entity) is antisemitic, not just being anti-Israeli (the people).
