Interesting because if these supporters were dropped off in the middle of a Hamas area what do they suppose would happen to them particularly the ladies.
You can't tell, you must ask. Ask your niece what her vision for Gaza is. How does Hamas govern? What is society like? Let her spin her dreams through to the end, where she sees that Hamas would create another undemocratic state that can't function. You might start by asking her where the leaders of Hamas are located, and why they're not suffering alongside their fellow Palestinians. Good luck...
The Atlantic had a good article about Hamas. Hamas tells you who they are. Maybe have her read that and then visit the Holocaust museum. Has she read about the holocaust?
She's human, isn't she. That's true for many, many people. For some reason she's got her identity tied up with the intersectionality movement which holds that various forms of oppression — racism, sexism, classism, ableism, and homophobia — constitute an intersecting system. BDS is included in that, as they see Israel oppressing Palestinians. But Hamas is different from the Palestinian people. Hamas is a terrorist organization like ISIS funded by Iran whose openly stated goal is the destruction of Israel. That's a nation. That's genocide. I bet she doesn't understand that.
I wish I could break through with that. My niece keeps reposting literal Hamas posts. She believes only that which confirms her bias. 🤷🏼♀️🤦🏼♀️

Exactly. I've noticed who is in all the photos and videos. And who isn't.

Good questions, Sheri. I'll try it, if she's even willing to discuss with me. But if I ask her vision, maybe that'll open the door.
