"But they voted for Hamas..."
Whatever your sympathies on the Gaza situation, please stop using this as a justification for anything, because it's not true.
Feel free to share this. Stats:
- most recent election in Palestine: 17 years ago in 2006
- age of suffrage: 18
- ∴ minimum age *now* to have voted then: 17+18 = 35
- Palestinian population: ~5 million (Gaza plus West Bank, per CIA World Factbook)
- …of which, people under 35: ~3 million
- ∴ ~ 60% of current Palestinians could not possibly have voted for Hamas
1/2
