Mark, since Gaza elected Hamas in ’06, 16 years ago, why has there never been an election since? The answer is quite simple, Hamas is in control and working for Iran to eliminate Israel. Hamas will never allow a free election because they don’t have the interests of the people of Gaza and have the power to keep Gaza under control. Just as the IRGC in Iran will shoot Iranians dead in the streets if they protest against their government, so will Hamas shoot Gazan’s dead in the streets if they protest, so the people of Gaza are now trapped. To remove Hamas, Gazan’s would now have get into civil war and they are not capable of of doing that.
