There is no excuse for the sexual assaults Hamas performed on Oct 7

There is a long history of Israeli sexual assaults on Palestinian detainees

Thus, as long as we're going for metaphors, this falls under the same umbrella as "Sugar rockets aimed indiscriminately at civilian areas vs. Knowingly blowing the fuck out of a hospital with precision weapons"

They're both bad, but there is a vast difference in scale. One is throwing rocks, and the other is a fucking tank. Both need to be stopped, but one is a mite more severe as an immediate threat in need of being addressed. If your response to one side killing a thousand innocent people, and the other killing fifty thousand, is to condemn both sides equally, you don't give a fuck about innocent people.
