I agree. Keep in mind that nobody’s saying “all” Palestinians. We are speaking in general terms. People get sensitive about stuff like this. If someone says “Northern Ireland supported the IRA” does not implicate everyone in N Ireland. It’s a general statement. The Palestinian population is fairly supportive of terrorist attacks and the groups that carry them out. Hamas is the elected government of Gaza. Even American groups like CAIR are fairly sympathetic to Hamas and Hezbollah (although they’re more careful to hide it these days). I doubt there’s any accurate polling in Gaza but they do seem fairly supportive of continuing attacks on Israel. I wish it wasn’t so. I think there would be a chance of peace if they rejected terrorist groups.
