      Look everyone, a pro-Israel propagandist with a bunch of easily refuted ‘talking points’ (lies). I’m always surprised they bother with places like Lemmy.

      Colonizers and apartheidists really are the scum of the earth.

      Just saying you might want to look closer into Hamas’ election. It was a razor thin over Fatah and fewer than 50% of the vote. Then Hamas decided to not hold elections anymore for the past 17 years. Hamas is not popular at all anymore with 70% of gazans wanting the palastinian authority to take over the strip from hamas in a 2023 poll. Hamas saw the writing in the wall and decided to task Israel with creating a whole new generation of grieving and pissed off people which they are quickly doing.

        I found a demographic breakdown of the population of Gaza by age and I think about 70% of people there are too young to have voted in the last election. And given the 50ish percent margin Hamas won by, is reasonable that only about max 15% of the current population actually voted for them. There’s a lot of assumptions and hand waving there, but I don’t imagine it’s too far off.

      Israel is so kind to have allowed Palestinians to use a small section of the territory they used to occupy entirely less than 100 years ago to create an enclave with some of the highest population density in the world, truly they’re great benefactors!

      You know who really fucking sucks? Hamas. You know who else really fucking sucks? The Israeli government.
