    My “favorite” rhetorical riposte to this claim is that “Israel” has been far more deadly towards queer Palestinians than Hamas or other orgs could ever hope to be.

      Also want to point out that all evidence that Hamas kills gays comes straight from the IDF. I’m not saying it’s impossible, but I won’t believe it just because Israel says so.

        Yep, agreed, but my point is that even if we concede the point, the IOF is still far worse for queer Palestinians, as the IOF doesn’t give a shit and will kill you regardless.
