Palestinians living in the West Bank give their opinions of Hamas, Israel, Jews, and LGBTQ.

Thank you very much and God bless you.

What do they say?
They ALL support Hamas, hate Israel and think everything about October 7th was a good thing.
That’s exactly what I would expect their beliefs to be,
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

Good luck with that. The 5-10 major posters on FR that put up 80-120 new posts per day just post and run. It happens around the clock. Mostly bots with some human guidance with occasional response depending on their shift and authorization from their supervisors.
Does anyone reading think it logical that a fellow FReeper can post several times an hour over a 24-hour period, seven days a week, year round for several years??
Okay, I get it. Some FReepers are old and infirm and lie in bed doing nothing but posting on Free Republic.
If you believe that, then you may be an ActBlue donor. The Democrats appreciate your donations of $5-10 nineteen times a day, every day.

My advice to FReepers is to use discernment when you see streams of posts all day, every day, from the same people who post and run. Even some I like.
I’m pretty young, but I have been around long enough to have found Jim’s listserve and yahoo(?) page back during the Xlinton/Lewinsky days (on dial up!) and I’ve been here ever since.
FReegards,

Interesting. I hadn’t noticed “grundle” is exactly a post and run sort of account.
I have you seen this before. They love Hamas. A lot of them went across the border to help kidnap Israelis.

I didn’t say he was. Not even in the top 15. I just used the post to vent some frustration at others and get attention to this post-and-run problem of late.
Grundle, my apology. This was not directed at you. Don’t take offense, none intended.
My devices are set to stay logged in and see the latest 100 posts (not replies). I have the luxury of refreshing the page constantly throughout the day. I can be in any time zone and see 75 of the 100 posts from the same 10-15 accounts.
That’s the problem.
I noticed this pattern many years back - and it seemed it was done to keep freepers from being able to form a consensus of thought. The only time it easy to interact with each other on a major topic is when a crisis happens.
That was just a guess. Any idea why and who is doing this?
Can you name the top five?
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.
Can you name the top five?

I can name mine, but I won’t do it publicly because it’s just a theory from observation. I’d prefer not to out any genuine FReepers by accident.
There really are a bunch of oldsters and blue hairs that reply all day with nothing else to do but opinionate. That’s okay. These aren’t the ones that post dozens of articles.
For lots of old folks, say 70-90, engaging on the internet is a connection.

Yeah, well check this insanity (and the comments from some here)

Actually, I like the fact that we have prolific posters here.
The site was better when we had 40 prolific posters, more articles from places that I didn’t ever read. Most were pretty good.
Seems like we need a few more prolific posters around here.
I was driven through the West Bank and visited Bethlehem in 2011. The Arabs were friendly then, I guess not so much now.
