Was there a single Palestinian who didn't know what Hamas was when they voted for them?
Now, just like we in the US are stuck with the result of stupid Democrats who voted for Biden, Gaza is stuck with the terrorist group they elected, and the consequences will be that thousands will be killed, probably tens of thousands injured and homeless, and their piss-poor economy will suffer even more hardship.
Elections have consequences, and often expose the ignorance of the populace.
No sympathy here!

I read that 5000 were fired so, I guess that means there were a whole lot of duds, or the Iron Dome stopped way more than what got through.Sumela » 10 Oct 2023, 12:17 pm » wrote: ↑ 1,800 rockets hit Jizzrael.
Where was the Iron Tranny Dome??
The results of the 2006 election between Hamas and Fatah in Gaza, along with opinion from International Observers, the EU and Arab League were as follows ........... They did not bully or strongarm the Gazan residents into electoral support... And as Hamas amended its charters and became a more violent Islamic movement which called for the annihilation of Israel, the people of Gaza maintained their support of Hamas...Majik » 10 Oct 2023, 8:31 am » wrote: ↑ No, that is a distortion of what actually took place .......
The fact is the residents of Gaza elected Hamas to power with the threat of death by Hamas hanging over their heads ....
The people of Gaza were predominantly aligned with Fatah and Arafat until his death in 2004....
The Fatah-Hamas conflict in 2006 was a bloody politrical evolution ......which Hamas won due to their brutality against Palestinians whom opposed them.

and in less than 2 years, the majority no longer supported Biden.... 17 years later in Gaza, the majority still supports Hamas.
Not true. They have 10 different parties, we have 2. Gaza has never given Hamas majority support.Kobia2 » 10 Oct 2023, 12:35 pm » wrote: ↑ and in less than 2 years, the majority no longer supported Biden.... 17 years later in Gaza, the majority still supports Hamas.

It's strong support, it's not majority support. My sympathies are muted by just how strongly they are supported.Kobia2 » 10 Oct 2023, 12:53 pm » wrote: ↑ This is from my post #31.....
These were the 2006 Election Results..... I am not aware of Gaza having some Electoral College system they go by, so in order to have won the majority of those seats, they would have had Majority support...
Hamas won 76 seats, excluding four won by independents supporting Hamas, and Fatah only 43.[140] The election was judged by international observers to have been "competitive and genuinely democratic". The EU said that they had been run better than elections in some members countries of the union, and promised to maintain its financial support.[136] Egypt, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, and the United Arab Emirates urged the US to give Hamas a chance, and that it was inadvisable to punish Palestinians for their choice, a position also endorsed by the Arab League a month later.[1
