Because they're not going to do that. You can't call them terrorists and expect logical reasonable action or reaction.

So we shouldn’t call them terrorists and hope they stop killing people? I’m sorry that doesn’t make any sense. Israel isn’t about to stop their war on Hamas, yet it doesn’t stop the world criticising them.

The Palestinian people by and large did not vote Hamas in, over 50% of the people in Gaza were not alive during the last election.

While technically true, almost 70% of Gazans support armed attacks on Israeli civilians.](https://pcpsr.org/sites/default/files/Poll%2089%20English%20Full%20Text%20September%202023.pdf) I know it doesn’t fit the oppressor/oppressed narrative, but the vast majority of people in Gaza support what Hamas is doing. If elections were held today, according to that same poll, they would vote Hamas back in.

It doesn't make sense no, it's also not at all what I said but neat projection.

That's an opinion poll for a population that generally do not answer and those that do answer have to think about how that might get out and what extremists might do about that.

Ed sample population sub 2000.... Jesus dude did you vet this at all lol.
