And to add to that, these people did not say “Hamas did nothing wrong”. 58% said they saw Hamas as very or “somewhat” positive. This is an organisation who on one hand is a terrorist organisation, but who on the other hand operates social services. People living in deep poverty who are exposed to the social services aspect will naturally to some extent be willing to tick a box saying “somewhat positive” (38%, vs 20% “very positive”) for an organization who they personally have first-hand positive interactions with.
Despite that, and at the same time, the same survey also points out that 70% of the population in Gaza wants Hamas to give up separate armed units and hand power over the the Palestinian Authority, which should give some insight into how “somewhat positive” does not mean “agree with brutal terrorism against civilians” given that it in fact doesn’t even mean “thinks Hamas should stay in charge or have control of armed units”.
This person keeps grossly misrepresenting the level of support actually expressed.
