If some guy robs me and I drive by shoot up his house and his children get shot and die, that's not his fault. That's my fault. I see your point, he would have some culpability starting shit with a dangerous person, but ultimately I am the one that did the shooting.
Hamas didn't drop those bombs. Israel did. Are hamas bad leaders? Sure. Do they use this response for propaganda purposes? Yes. Do they deliberately do things knowing this will happen so they can benefit from the anger over it? Yes. Israel still dropped the bombs. acknowledging someone's role in an outcome doesn't absolve the other party of their culpability.
