    Disclaimer, I’m a third party to this argument.

    As far as I can see that’s a misunderstanding.

    If you’re a member of one of those groups [Palestinian, Israeli], who can’t sympathize with the other [Israeli, Palestinian]… e.g. IDF (Israelis who can’t sympathize with Palestinians), Hamas (Palestinians who can’t sympathize with Israelis)

      Ah I see, honestly my interpretation still stands. Not every Palestinian who can’t sympathize with Israelis is Hamas. Hamas was an example given (because that’s what e.g. means), but based on what they said, they’re referring to any Palestinian who lacks sympathy. They didn’t say only Hamas. And this poster is conflating those two separate but overlapping groups of people, which is also fucked up.
