    who do you consider a viable source

    That’s a good question.

    If it’s a pro Hamas source, then I’ll believe what it says about Hamas. Like if Egypt reported that doctors were Hamas combatants, that’d be believable.

      Well I mean yeah, but that’s not going to happen. Hamas and their friends have a vested interest in making it look like they’re just a bunch of victims.

      I guess the reason I’m curious is because I find a lot of people (yourself not included) who more or less dismiss every source that backs up Israel’s stance/actions as just being zionist propaganda or whatever, so I’m interested in what we (in a general sense) could find that would serve as a sort of common ground of facts, even if we don’t agree on the more subjective side of things. Because yeah, there’s always going to be people who just carry water for their “side” regardless of the facts, but i feel like a lot of the middle ground is getting pulled to the extremes by the narrative that nothing can be trusted.
