Do you realize half the people in gaza are children? They cant even vote. So statements like yours are absolutely senseless.
Nobody can vote in Gaza. But saying that Hamas was created and financed by Israel when their ideas are clearly popular is ridiculous.
You can say that Israel caused this mess by annexing Palestine. By putting an effective regime of Apartheid. But saying that Hamas or their actions are not popular among the general population is false.
This is because Hamas ended elections.
Yes
Aside from Israel admitting they let Hamas rise to power to eliminate their enemies without actually being linked to them... Sure I guess?
It’s well known that Netanyahu wanted the secular faction weakened and had funded Hamas to do it. The Mossad also begged Qatar to fund Hamas.
When Palestinians see their children and friends being blown to peices, you must understand they will flock to whatever protects them.
You should do some reading before going off, because Bibi literally funded Hamas. Look it up yourself.
When I look that claim up I find people on social media endlessly repeating it. Without a source.
