Even if some individual Palestinians did not love and support Hamas, even if they felt more than a ‘twinge’ of guilt or sorrow about the Oct. 7th events, they do not dare to breathe a word of this ‘most inconvenient ambiguity ‘, otherwise their own families would hunt them down for Allah
After the attack I recall seeing interviews of Palestinians that had left (escaped?) Gaza. Paris maybe? Other places? They all said how corrupt Hamas was and they didn’t care for the people - they just wanted power. I was left with the feeling that they viewed Hamas like the Mob - or a drug cartel.
