Do all the western people who protest in support of Palestine know anything about Hamas and/or Sharia Law?

I’m not being flip in asking- I don’t know what they think they are trying to accomplish. I can imagine someone saying the killing of civilians is wrong, but I don’t get the sense that’s the message.

It seems like if they really gave a crap about civilians, they’d be vocally as against Hamas.

In the last week or so I saw Malala Yousafzai speaking in defence of Gaza civilians, and then get rebukes. Weren’t these the same people who shot her in the head for advocating female education?

I feel like I’m missing parts of the story.
