Are you actually suggesting that just because there hasn't been an election in 15 years, Gazans don't support Hamas?

Do you really think Gazans don't support Hamas? Do you think the polls are wrong?

I think the majority of Gazans just want to live in peace, like the majority of Isrealis.

Gazans were not asked to protest Hamas, they were anonymously asked if they support Hamas

What are you talking about? There are 2.3 million Gazans. Hamas forces are maybe 30k.

Well math is certainly not your strong point. Like I said, 30k Hamas forces is maybe 1 percent...

The 36,000 civilian deaths reported by Hamas health agency will come back to bite Sinwar in the ass.

Gotcha, if you ask someone to commit a crime, then the person who actually commits it isn't guilty?

Why do you think 500,000 Jews felt an urgency to leave Europe between 1930-1948?

I am assuming the "not so" doesn't refer to "The Palestinians who agreed to coexist with Jewish people live in Israel."

There are 2,100,000 Arab citizens of Israel. They make up more than 20% of the Israeli population.

And Netanyahu says the same thing regarding Hamas. Shame on both of them for their murdering goals.
