Israel propped up Hamas to label their aggressive tactics as "terrorism"

Can't seem to identify the bad actor here. Would you help out?

The US propped up the Taliban and other right-wing terrorist groups

You mean Taliban good, USA bad?

"Terrorist" tactics (or anything really) used for the sake of driving out a settler colonial ethnostate (a good thing) - like Hamas are doing and Viet Cong did - is good, while those tactics when used to oppress and commit genocide on a native population (a bad thing) - like Israel is doing - is bad. This isn't that hard to understand.

I understand that you think hamas will succeed in driving Israel out. Since all the current events are the result of hamas' actions and the expected process of driving Israel out, I don't see why wouldn't we just sit and watch it till the end. Since terrorism is excusable, all the casualties are the price of Palestine getting real independence.
