Does the "reign in the influence of Israel" movement need a Tucker Carlson to be credible?

Quit the concern trolling.

It is not intended as trolling, but rather to demonstrate what is perceived as hypocrisy within the international community.

For 20 years, while Hamas controlled and oppressed the Palestinian people—impoverishing its people and launching rockets at Isreal—the world remained silent. There were no protests in London or on college campuses, and few expressed concern for the Palestinian people.

Suddenly, the world now cares about the Palestinian people.

The outcry today is nothing but crocodile tears.

So Hamas was killing their own people?

Where was the outcry when Hamas was killing their own people?
You would have to check articles and cometary from nineteen years ago. I don’t keep things that old handy.

Why do you have to go back 19 years ago. The war didn’t start until October 2023.

Was Hamas oppressing its people before October 23? Where was the outcry then?

Kill enough people in a short period of time, and the world notices.

If this is the standard, protests about Sudan should be visible on London’s streets. In 2023, 20,000 Sudanese died, with another 18,000 in 2024 and over 10.9 million people displaced last year—almost ten times the number affected in Gaza.

FYI -
Between 2003 and 2009, over 200,000 people died, and between 1983 and 2005, another 2 million deaths were recorded.

What, exactly, is hypocritical about correcting your repeated insistence that Hamas winning an election in 2006 has any bearing on the disposition of the Palestinian people in 2025?

That's not true at all:

Are the Sudanese forces being supported by Western governments? People protest things that they think they can change.

All of these protests you posted are demonstrations against Israel; none appear to address what Hamas did to their own people.

And that is precisely my point. the world looked the other way when Hamas killed their own people.

You have stated that the Sudanese genocide is not a priority because the Sudanese government does not have the support of Western powers.

This demonstrates a pattern where global responses to injustice appear to be more prominent when Israel is involved. Some might call that anti-sematic.

You asked about where the outrage was about hamas murdering opponents to consolidate power in 06. You would need to check articles from that time.

To add some context:

During their legislative session/elections in 2006...

The only choices they had were
Fatah (a corrupt nationalist party that was fractured)
Hamas (an Islamist group)

(and Hamas only won by a small majority)
Well now they have a new opportunity. And they are still millions strong protesting in support of HAMAS.

This is a truly baffling leap of logic. As I said, people tend to protest things that they can change - that is, actions undertaken or supported by their own government.

At least you acknowledge that it is injustice though. Small progress.

This all support for their chosen government. If Hamas would surrender none of this would be going on.

HAMAS official: Do you still support HAMAS, or would you like to ‘disappear’?
I’d probably “support HAMAS”, too, if this is the case.
All that has to dissappear is Hamas. but the palestinians support them.

they have not protested Hamas election . They don't want a change obviously. They have said so loud and clear.

irrelevant.
Relevant as what’s under discussion is calling hamas the elected representatives of Gaza when they abolished elections after gaining power.

It is not relevant. They support, have been supporting Hamas loudly, openly, and continually. An election is irrelevant.

It’s quite relevant if one is calling them elected representatives when no such elections are held.
