We are all getting a distorted view of happenings in that area. Just as many "Jews" are Ashkenazi, so too, many Gazans are Hamas. Seems there are more Ashkenazi than Jewish Israelis and more Hamas than non-Hamas Gazans. Gazans under Hamas rule has let Gaza deteriorate into a cesspool slum. There is no good reason the Gazans allowed the funding they received from Israel and the USA to be used for weaponry and underground tunnels instead of topside development for the people. Hamas's sole purpose is to genocide all Israelis, then move on to other non-Muslims.
