Agreed we shouldn't conflate Israel/Zionism/Jews. With regard to popularity

in the last Israel election in 2022 Likud got 23.4% of the vote.

With regard to the Palestinians last night you referenced a poll which showed 62% still supported Hamas. This was taken a last year in the midst of a war zone. The poll itself admitted that this was questionable simply because if asked most respondents in fear of their lives would say yes.

There have been recent anti-Hamas protests in Gaza where shortly afterwards some of the participants were rounded up, tortured, and executed by Hamas. Hamas is a terrorist organisation which is oppressing its own people every bit as much as it is a threat to Israel.
