      It’s a good thing we have you around to let us know what all Palestinians think

      You make some strange and easily debunkable claims here.

      • If “all Palestinians” cherished Hamas there wouldn’t be a Fatah or a PA.

      • The Israeli right wing literally supported Hamas over Fatah in order to justify continued violence and land theft against the Palestinians. Hamas and the settlers (who are now the Israeli government) are literally feeding off each other.

      • The main reason this attack succeeded was because the Gaza border was unmanned, because the current Israeli government moved the military to the West Bank in order to protect the settlers there while they commit attacks on the Palestinians there. Despite the Israeli military describing some of the actions of these settlers as a “progrom”.

      • The “Muslim fundamentalists of the Levant” comprise Christians and other groups too, including Jews before this entire conflict started. There had been Jews in the Levant for millennia, despite it being under Muslim rule for 1400 years. Jews were still banned from Jerusalem under the Byzantines, until the Muslims conquered it and allowed Jews to return to the city. Jerusalem had a Jewish majority when the British took control of the place.

      • I find this idea that the hatred is exclusively due to anti-Semitism to be the stupidest one Israel tries to put out there. Had Palestine been occupied by Bhuddists or atheists, you think they would not resist, or hate their occupier? Was the Viet-Cong motivated by anti-Christian values in fighting both France and the USA? How stupid are you?

      Collective punishment is a crime against humanity.

      Fatah is still in power in the west bank, you make it sound like they disappeared.

      All palestinian across this world cherish the Hamas party rule

      That statement is literally fascist. Not figuratively, not allegorically, not approximately, but precisely fascist.

      You realize this argument is just as fascist as “all jews across the world want to control the global finances”?

        No but you see that’s their fascists saying things, not our fascists saying things. If ours say things they must obviously be true because they don’t like them.

      That you generalize all Palestinians this way is racist, and nowhere near true.

      Here are polls showing that even 70% of Palestinians in Gaza wants the Palestinian Authority to take over power from Hamas:

      https://www.washingtoninstitute.org/policy-analysis/polls-show-majority-gazans-were-against-breaking-ceasefire-hamas-and-hezbollah

      Even in the 2006 election (the last held in Gaza) Hamas didn’t even get a majority of votes (they got 44.45%). They were the largest party, and because of the electoral system they won a majority of seats.
