Mr Rose

'I am quite worried about the 21% who replied ''don't know'. Are they people who have spent the last six months living in the Amazon rain forest and haven't heard about the atrocity on October 7, or is it that they simply can't make up their minds as to whether torture, rape and murder are a bad thing?'

Various reasons for the 21%.

Many people don't follow any 'serious' news media at all.

Not interested when they can TikTok a cross eyed cat or simply find it all too depressing.

Hence probably they have no idea that the shocking event even took place.

Were it to be explained to them I am sure all but the most  fanatical Hamas supporting Palestinian or western fellow traveller would condemn it.

So, partly self interest but also canny media tactics by the Hamas terrorists.

Has anyone seen them interviewed and asked to explain or justify their barbarous actions ?

Perhaps on AL Jazeera or another dodgy Arab news channel but none watched by a sophisticated western audience.

And I am sure never critically.

A 'never explain never complain' approach means Hamas can remain in the shadows and literally get away with murder.

If you make no comments you can never be put on the back foot by having them picked over by your critics.

And no one but the most forensic investigator really knows who you are; what your beliefs and aims are; and what terrorist acts you have committed.

And those you have committed and are known to the enlightened are soon forgotten.

This 'no comment' approach is undoubtedly enforced by terror and brutality.

Israel on the other hand does allow free speech and as is always the case, someone will always not choose their words carefully enough and will put their foot in it.

These comments themselves then become the centre of interest and become easy pickings for any gaslighting opponent wishing to prove how wicked the Israelis as a whole are.

Meanwhile the Hamas terrorists just smirk in the background, their atrocities and vile beliefs fading in the memory.
