Your link is dead... but the idea that the "vast majority" of Palestinians support a group that was elected way back in 2004, then immediately dismantled elections violently attacks any dissenters is laughable, Palestinians were bravely publicly protesting hamas (again, a group known for executing dissenters) just 4 months before the attacks, internal support for hamas is not high. https://apnews.com/article/gaza-hamas-demonstration-israel-b...

Link fixed. The source actually adds the nuance you mentioned. I guess it's possible they might oppose the Hamas rule, but also support the graphic violence of Oct 7th.
