I read all these PCPSR polls in detail as they were released. And if you actually read the polls you'd never be able to conclude what you did, for one simple reason. Those polls consistently show vaaaast majority (>90%) of Palestinians from Gaza did not believe Hamas perpetrated attrocities attributed to them by Israelis. There was never a direct qustion about support of killing Jews in those polls either.

OTOH, extermination of population of an enemy city was a direct question in that Israeli poll.

Also on another note, a poll of a population of Gaza does not represent all Muslims. You can easily say that a long term occupied and terrorized population by Israeli Jews, will not be best representative sample of Muslim views on Israel or Jews, even if that population is very largely Muslim.

Conflating views of all Muslims with Muslims from Gaza, lying about the poll and misrepresenting the results to fit your whataboutist views, etc. only shows your total lack of rigor. Nothing else.

You can’t claim that Israelis are particularly hateful if you’re not comparing them to anyone else.

For all you know all people are just as hateful or more hateful.

All you are showing is that Israelis are reflective and self-critical.
