    It’s not that easy. Hamas leadership goes to great lengths to protect themselves from Israeli assassinations. Yehia Sinwar for example didn’t use a smartphone for this very reason. It’s also harder for people to “not risk it” when they’re denied the right to even hope for a better future.

      They were successfully hunting down Nazis multiple continents away before smart phones were a thing. I think they could have figured it out if they wanted to.

      This was always about genocide.

        Obviously this was always about genocide; I’m not disputing that. My point is that the Palestinian resistance evolved under and against the backdrop of Israeli intelligence, so they’re not exactly sitting ducks for the IDF to assassinate.
