Hamas is the official government and controls the army/militants of Gaza, they intentionally massacred almost a thousand civilians in Israel, and then expect them not to close off the border? It was their fucking choice that the border got slammed shut.

Imagine your neighbour started a fight and as a result someone cut off all the food and water to your whole area and didn't let you leave to get some. Is it "your fucking choice" to starve? Give me a break.

But fair enough, if what you say is accurate I will add Egypt to the "killing people for no reason" list. They are quite some way behind Israel, but still.

If my neighbor killed someone then started a fight, if I had the power to remove them and then didn't, I would expect I might be hurt from collateral damage.

It would be more akin to Canada sending missiles into the US approved by the government and as a Canadian not expecting that the US would respond back.
