A few have posted it here, as some sort of proof that the civilian population of Gaza doesn't deserve support or sympathy. It supposedly shows majority support for Hamas and for the attacks on Israel.
A few caveats w/ this one:
- Close to 40% of the population there is children, who are not polled
- There is no electricity in most of Gaza. Apparently, the poll was "in person"
- Hamas rule is not unlike rule in Nazi Germany or the old Soviet Union: anyone who criticizes the government in those regimes risks potentially severe reprisals from the government, for themselves and their families
The civilians of Gaza deserve support, and as much protection from what is happening as they can get. Humanitarian conditions there right now are unimaginably bad.
