Almost three in four Palestinians believe the Oct. 7 attack by Hamas on Israel was correct, and the ensuing Gaza war has lifted support for the Islamist group both there and in the West Bank, a survey from a respected Palestinian polling institute found.
Watch as the Israeli talking heads wheel out this poll as an excuse for killing Gazan civilians.
No. But even if 100% of the population of Gaza supported Hamas and even the Al Aqsa Flood, that’s still no excuse to kill civilians.
However the Israeli government has given no straight answers, fabricated evidence, and muddied the waters continuously since the 7th of October. It uses every opportunity to distract from and distort the truth. It will also take this as just such an opportunity.
Wait, you mean that occupied oppressed People don’t like being occupied and oppressed???
Most Palestinians alive today were born into what is practically an open-air prison that is cordoned off by Israel. Being oppressed is all they have known. Its obvious that they hate their colonisers. And all these bombings will only fuel that hatred.
It’s really disappointing and I can’t help but wonder how much Israel constantly shelling civilians is helping to prop up a shitheel organization like Hamas.
Israel made this monster and I mean that literally. Politicians of Israel openly said Hamas is a useful tool for them. Israel itself funded Hamas.
As long as there is a “monster” there is a justification for an attack. It is genuinely fucking astounding how Israel looked at the treatment of Jews during WW2 and took that as a playbook instead of the most horrific thing to happen in the last century and something that shouldn’t be repeated.
Wait, what polls?
“I’m sorry your house got blown up and you lost all of your family members and are going to have your legs amputated, likely without anesthetic or clean supplies, but do you have time for a quick survey?”
2nd paragraph of the article gives the source if that’s what you want to know.
The Palestinian Center for Policy Survey and Research (PCPSR) findings were published as international alarm grows over the spiralling Palestinian civilian toll in the Israeli counter-offensive against Hamas, now in its third month.
