They are occupying the West Bank for security reasons, again due to the violence and intimidation of the Palestinians. They haven’t taken it over, they are sharing the land, which of course is the only sensible long term objective.
As for your statement about conflating Hamas with the wider Palestinian population, they all seem to be stubbornly clinging on to their hatred of Israel and feel the need to have them all destroyed.
There’s a reason why Jordan didn’t want them.
