I’ve heard different answers to this question. Conducting a poll is obviously a hard task to pull of in an authoritarian country, considering the censorship by the state.
A quick search got me to this poll: Article, Archive

So the answer would be that only 15% of the population are pro-theocracy.

In response to the question "Islamic Republic: Yes or No?” 81% of respondents inside the country responded “No” to the Islamic Republic, 15% responded “Yes,” and 4% were not sure.

the tentacles of the persian state…

As a supporter of the Iranian opposition, I’d like to correct you about this description. The Islamic Republic have nothing to do with Persian ethnicity or Iranian nationality. Only 50%-60% of Iranians are Persian, it’s a very ethnically and culturally diverse nation. The Islamic Republic is a theocracy that oppresses the people of Iran. They destroy secularism and minority cultures in favor of Shia-style Islamization.

I refuse to accept your appeasement attitude. Israel sends its troops (Jews, Arabs, Druze) to the battlefield to fight a just war. Human life is put at risk to achieve the goals of the war.
Just as the allies fought Nazi Germany and lost millions of troops and civilians.

If there’s a hostage deal, it should serve the interests of Israel, not the interests of the terrorists of Hamas, PIJ, Fatah, PFLP etc.
A deal which servers the interests of Hamas-ISIS means surrender. A permanent ceasefire where Hamas stays in power means surrender. Not getting all the live Israeli hostages means surrender. Israel withdrawing from strategic areas means surrender.

The war in Gaza could end tomorrow if Hamas surrenders, disarms and returns all the hostages.

• Hamas must surrender.
• The Palestinian terrorists should be disarmed.
• All Israeli (Jews and Arabs) hostages in Gaza should be released immediately and unconditionally.

That’s what I’m saying. I don’t agree with your interpretation of my position, I never said that.

I did read the elements that were publicly published, yes.

• Release of hundreds of murderers out of prison without getting all the live hostages.
• The war ends (without Hamas losing power).

etc.

It doesn’t matter who organized the discussions, Hamas has no right to exist and it must be defeated.

The war in Gaza could end tomorrow if Hamas surrenders, disarms and returns all the hostages.

Would you tell the leader of your country to surrender to the terms of a Jihadist terror organizations and relasese hunderds of murderers?

What whould you prefer: USA, UK, USSR defeat Nazi Germany or surrender to their terms?

You mean Hamas.

Fathi Hammad: The first is the cleansing of Palestine of the filth of the Jews.

The war in Gaza could end tomorrow if Hamas surrenders, disarms and returns all the hostages.
