Saw this in the news today Israel-Gaza war: US carries out its first aid airdrop in strip https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-middle-east-68457937

I don’t get it… the US has been a really vocal and financial supporter of the state of Israel, why are they also supporting the Palestinians who oppose them?

    Technically they won the last election and they do run the government in Gaza. So like it or not they are basically the government in Gaza.

    They are also an extremist group but that doesn’t make them not a government. Likud is also an extremist group but they control the government of Israel.
