They keep referring to the genocide as the ‘Israel-Hamas war’ even though there are other major factions like the PIJ, PFLP, Mujahedeen etc

Because talking about other groups would be an admission that Israel’s war is against the people of Palestine and wouldn’t fit the narrative Israel and its western handlers are pushing of the war only being against Hamas.
It never made sense, but it’s making even less sense now that the campaign has expanded to the West Bank, where Hamas isn’t as dominant a force as it is in Gaza.
Plus, when it’s just a narrative of “Israel vs Hamas”, it’s easier too keep up the idea low-information viewers have that this is a conflict between two equally proportioned groups
