    True, but what often goes unreported is the massive scale at which Israel is killing Palestinians.

    Check out this link for example: https://www.statista.com/chart/amp/16516/israeli-palestinian-casualties-by-in-gaza-and-the-west-bank/

    Israel kills and injures roughly 20 Palestinians for each Israeli killed/injured by Palestine.

    The current era of the conflict started in 2006, when the Hamas during a ceasefire stepped down from the government in favour of a less radical government to lead to a peace process. But then Israel bombed a residential building (they say by accident), killing 24 civilians including children and injuring many more.

    That's when the Hamas took back the power and restarted their attacks on Israel.
