The IDF is part of the Isrealis state. Hamas is not under the control of any state.

It's not that "it's okay", it's that one could have been stopped much more easily for decades, and the fact that it wasn't has largely precipitated this week's events. Just like the US fucked around with jihadists for decades, Isreal has done the same, and now tons of people are going to suffer from the blowback of fascist policy.

I encourage you to watch the Palestinians ambassador's statement on the topic from earlier today on the BBC (excuse the crappy title): https://youtu.be/Q65lBllbv1g
