If you only criticize civilian casualties when Palestine resists, then your concern isn't civilian casualties. Your concern is Palestine resisting massacre. (lemy.lol)

The burden of proof lies on the person making a claim. But sure, I'll still respond. From Hamas' official website:

Hamas affirms that its conflict is with the Zionist project not with the Jews because of their religion. Hamas does not wage a struggle against the Jews because they are Jewish but wages a struggle against the Zionists who occupy Palestine. Yet, it is the Zionists who constantly identify Judaism and the Jews with their own colonial project and illegal entity.

Nice quote. How about a few more?

Jews are a people who cannot be trusted. They have been traitors to all agreements. Go back to history. Their fate is their vanishing

  • an imam of Hamas, 2008

Suffering by fire is the Jews' destiny in this world and the next. Therefore we are sure that the Holocaust is still to come upon the Jews.

  • another imam and Hamas legislator

In order to annihilate those Jews. ... O Allah, destroy the Jews and their supporters. O Allah, destroy the Americans and their supporters. O Allah, count them one by one, and kill them all, without leaving a single one.

  • Speaker of the Hamas parliament, 2012

The Jews are behind each and every catastrophe on the face of the Earth. This is not open to debate. This is not a temporal thing, but goes back to days of yore. They concocted so many conspiracies and betrayed rulers and nations so many times that the people harbor hatred towards them. ... Throughout history—from Nebuchadnezzar until modern times. ... They slayed the prophets, and so on. ... Any catastrophe on the face of this Earth—the Jews must be behind it.

  • a member of the Hamas parliament, 2012

We all remember how the Jews used to slaughter Christians, in order to mix their blood in their holy matzos... It happened everywhere.

  • Hamas spokesman, 2014

This conference bears a clear Zionist goal, aimed at forging history by hiding the truth about the so-called Holocaust, which is an alleged and invented story with no basis. (...) The invention of these grand illusions of an alleged crime that never occurred, ignoring the millions of dead European victims of Nazism during the war, clearly reveals the racist Zionist face, which believes in the superiority of the Jewish race over the rest of the nations. (...) By these methods, the Jews in the world flout scientific methods of research whenever that research contradicts their racist interests.

  • Hamas press release, 2000

The Day of Judgment will not come until Muslims fight the Jews, when the Jew will hide behind stones and trees. The stones and trees will say, 'O Muslim, O servant of God, there is a Jew behind me, come and kill him.' Only the Gharkad tree would not do that, because it is one of the trees of the Jews.

  • The former 1988 Hamas charter, but also a hadith in which islamists believe
