12. No.

Given that

a) The last election in Gaza was 17 years ago when Hamas took over. (My grandson was in diapers then);

b) only 30% of the current population was alive when that Hamas election happened 17 years ago. The other 70% were not.

c) almost 40 percent of the Gaza population as of Oct 7 was under the age of 15, according to the CIA, and more were 17 or younger when Hamas was voted in,

d) Hezbollah has funded and trained Hamas,

I'd say that non-Hezbollah Lebanese are unwitting victims of Hezbollah's taking over their country over the last ten years. And probably silent. If they're allowed to evacuate they're not prisoners; if not, they are.
