Hamas isn't Hitler/Nazis, this is an insane analogy. Israeli elites prefer Hamas to secular political resistance of the Palestinians:

Despite its enmity with Hamas, Israel has, over the years, viewed it as a useful counterweight to Fatah. The Israeli right, in particular, has viewed the bitter Hamas-Fatah rift as a guarantee that Palestinian leadership will never unite in support of a peace agreement, or even a unified front to demand Palestinian independence. https://www.haaretz.com/israel-news/2023-10-09/ty-article/.p...

Also, YES it is wrong to do collective punishment to civilians in retaliation for their political leadership. What the Allies did to Dresden is widely and rightly regarded as an atrocity: https://www.nytimes.com/2020/02/13/world/europe/dresden-germ...

You're right, they aren't nazis. They are even worse.

Because?

* The nazis had a functioning society

* The nazis wanted a functioning society

* The nazi beliefs weren't based on religion

* The nazis weren't anti-science and made scientific progress

* The nazis were well dressed

I think that is the gist of it even if I probably could think of more points. Never thought that I was about to defend the nazis but honestly even if they were evil af Hamas and other groups are worse because I think it boils down to there is no logic behind any of their reasoning
