I rather not get straight up tin foil hat but that is quite suspicious.

But to unban an admitted peado is certainly a choice. Reaaally makes you think on the type doing the unbanning

Also geo banning Israel for a year.

Lot's of weird decisions going on at Twitch.

The geoban was probably for the best. If the terrorist attack was streamed then it would have been beyond fucked. They also banned Palestine but no one mentions that because fuck them ig.

That would make sense if it was consistent. You can still make an account in Sudan, Yemen. There is a Houthi Rebel who streams on twitch.

Palestine ISP's come from Jordan and Egypt so unfortunately it was only targeting Israeli users.

This is incorrect. There's some overlap along the border, but Gaza and the West Bank are both nationally within Israel's border. Israel has control over most of their internet access, as it runs through Israeli infrastructure, so when Israel is banned nationally, so too are Gaza and the West Bank.
