Source on Israel funding Hamas?
My understanding is they allowed money to pass from Qatar to Hamas, but never directly funded them.
Care to offer a source you find unbiased?
Here is a direct link to the most recent survey for what it’s worth. I personally would be careful about reading too much into the numbers though.

nothing buy western media
TIL Reuters (United Kingdom), the Associated Press (United States), and Deutsche Welle (Germany) aren’t western media.
Fair point.
Do all of us think that though? There seems to be a diversity of thought about Hamas on Lemmy.
and is ready to negotiate over the details
I feel like this should have been the headline. Hopefully it turns into something real.
The person I replied to wrote:
However we do not get these kind of accounts for the tens of thousands of Palestinians murdered by Israel.
I have listened to, read, and seen dozens if not hundreds of Palestinian stories going into great detail about their lives and suffering. The narrative that the media, and in particular Reuters, doesn’t cover Palestinian stories because they are unworthy victims is patently false. These articles are quick examples of this and I posted them to challenge the perception of some users on Lemmy (Lemmings?).
Reuters is not propaganda, that is abundantly clear.
A news article from less than a week ago?
The first sentence being:
Hamas rejected the US-backed proposal to end the conflict in Gaza, saying Israel must commit to a permanent cease-fire and full withdrawal…
Seems “Zionists” aren’t the only obstacles to peace and the release of hostages.
Got a source to go along with that claim?
deleted by creator
Not exactly?
I just want to remind people that there were protests against Hamas in Gaza that were going on in August 2023.

Edit:
See Public Opinion Poll No (91) from April 15th 2024 For a more recent update.
Not sure about the accuracy of the polling given the current climate, but wanted to share a primary source regardless
if you have to kill thousands of children based on the claim that you’re protecting your nation
My point is that this was something the Allied powers did as well, and they were the only thing that stopped the Axis powers. The scale and intent could be argued, but even though military conflicts are extremely horrific, I don’t always see a viable alternative.
To be clear, I’m also not saying that the specifics of the Israel-Palestine conflict are the same as WWII.
Ah, mostly that the Allied forces were fighting to protect their own nations, not just against the Axis powers. In doing so, they also caused death and destruction to innocents.
On one hand I can sympathize with that sentiment, on the other hand, I can’t imagine the horrors that would have occurred if the Axis powers had been allowed to conquer the world.
