You hit the nail on the head.
Yes, I would prefer something better than Hamas, but it isn’t our job as lower‐class Westerners to prescribe other oppressed people’s protagonists for them, especially when those people are facing an extermination campaign.
The IDF is worse than Hamas. (To put it very, very mildly.) Likewise, pro‐Hamas statements are exceedingly trivial compared to pro‐IDF ones. We shouldn’t waste our time and effort trying to fight a two‐front war; we should be concentrating on doing whatever we can to inconvenience the IDF as much as possible, and then maybe later we can worry about Hamas. I don’t see how this is difficult to understand.
