53 percent of all Palestinians want Hamas to rule. Only 14 percent support the opposition party.

APPROVAL for Hamas among Palestinians was as high as 73 percent in the last few years.

So don't pretend that the majority of these people don't support those terrorists. Palestinians have been empowering and protecting terrorists for as long as any of you have been alive.

Sympathy for the innocent Palestinians is great. But let's not pretend these are a people who are all really torn up about the murder of Jewish children.

I'd say Israel as an apartheid state has done all the empowering that Hamas needs to be in control.

Terrorist groups tend to not just spring from nothing.
