But it's OK. I know I am unworthy person for being stupid (excuse me, "deliberately obtuse"), and not pulling myself up by my (latent?) intellectual bootstraps. (unmalleable stupidity = malleable ignorance? It's confusing, sorry!)

So, I'll assume for now (during my info gathering as I explained in my initial post) that it's:

(a) Hamas is mighty intelligent and sneaky, and so can fool *all* the dummies who live right next to them, so that the word doesn't get out (seems unlikely, but I suppose it's possible; plus they don't read these websites, it's too over their heads); or,

(b) Hamas basically isn't fooling the rest of the Gazans, so the rest of the Gazans are aware of this danger, some portion want to martyr themselves, but some (most?) others don't, and so will submit to Hamas' "democratic" rule (i.e. the "will of [its] people"); or,

(c) Hamas doesn't *actually* want to kill all the Gazans running away -- you're just fibbin', man!!

Currently, (b) looks to me most plausible (but (c) maybe??) Of course, (b) comes with the problem that Hamas isn't exactly a democratic ruler. (Shhhhh!)

Now, I know these can't be *all* the possibilities, or even correct ones, they're just the ones off my pretty little head, which I was hoping you'd help me straighten out, but...

... I vote. And, in addition, I'll explain my substandard "reasoning" to my stupid pals, who, being stupid herd animals, will do the same. Good job! Thank you!

Once the American regime gets rid of the dummy voters (well, in fact, it already has, but is still keeping up the pretense until its "Democracy is being killed by the [current scapegoat]!!" is finally pounded into our heads), I won't need your help. I'll have Big Brother.
