Well I don't know where you from but I assure you that your country is also violating human rights. Hamas violates human rights as well.

The comedy is that you are brainwashed enough to actually believe that anyone wants to get shot.
When your government spends all it's funds on terror infrastructure instead of taking care of it's own citizens, when you have no job and no income but you need feed yourself, a bullet in the leg for the money Hamas is offering seems like a good deal.
It's not that I'm brainwashed. You just never been hungry enough.
And all I see is lotta unarmed protesters being shot.
So you think Ghandi was a terrorist as well?
The statement from Amnesty is clear as day, I'll stick to their analysis and giggle away the comedy gold instead. How's that?
Hamas forces in Gaza committed serious human rights abuses, including abductions, torture and summary and extrajudicial executions

Touche, I got caught jumping to conclusions.... I had just woken up. I reread OP, it was rather well written and unbiased. My mistake.

I think so. Will delete.
Still illustrates the use of fake photo ops to influence public opinion.
And their crime legitimates you to commit another? You're an anarchist or what?
The UN is pretty clear about the blockade.

But remember on thing. The blockade can be lifted in a matter of weeks from now. All Hamas needs to do is to disarm and start looking after it's own citizens instead of investing all the money they get in terror infrastructure.
No. Israel is violating human rights, which is why they'll have to end the blockade without any prerequirement whatsoever.
The blockade has been criticized by Ban Ki-moon (the then-UN Secretary-General), the United Nations Human Rights Council (UNHRC)[7] and other human rights organizations. The International Committee of the Red Cross termed it "collective punishment" in violation of international humanitarian law.

Here's more from Amnesty on the actual situation:
The Israeli authorities must urgently reverse their policies and abide by their international legal obligations. Their horrifying use of live ammunition against unarmed protesters, and the resultant deaths, must be investigated as possible unlawful killings. The Israeli authorities must respect the Palestinians’ right to peaceful protest and, in the event that there is violence, use only the force necessary to address it.

Well. Who on Ceres cares anyway, right?
Whomever deluded you into believing this is doing you a disservice. You are committed to a false reality.
Just admit that Israel screwed up and go on from there.
I like how Max suggests, that all protesters must be paid crisis actors

Not suggesting that at all. But Palestinian testimonies talk for themselves. Besides, Hamas admit it.
No body claimed all of them are paid though. Only the ones got shot.
Now I know Israel killed 60 people in one day and wounded thousands more because they are trying to look out for these people and save them from Hamas.
I really don't care much about the Palestinians but Israel put on a display of viciousness that stunned the world.
Now they try to weasel out of it by blaming Hamas?
It's not going to erase anyone's memory.
