Hamas needs to be removed, yes, but they're not a tumor; they're a virus. To quote Bassem Youssef, you don't cure a virus by hitting the patient with a sledgehammer.

    Hamas was elected though, and the mass majority of Palestinians support them.

    So Palestinians have two choices, either to support a political party that mostly complies with what Israel wants and doesn't protest to loudly the oppression or another more rebellious faction. I perfectly understand why a lot of people out of desperation support Hamas, but the core issue here is the military and economic oppression that Israel is exercising over Gaza, if this ceased then automatically Hamas would lose a lot of its supporters.

    Same with Bibi, if there is no Hamas, people won't vote for him.
