I don't buy it. There isn't any disruptions, and support for Hamas seems strong amongst Palestinians. Sure maybe a lot of them don't care, but they also don't care enough to change.

Funny enough, Israel have been the ones that have been ensuring Hamas stays in power, and doesn't hold elections.

Israel's own Prime Minister even admitted this fact:

"In an interview with Politico in 2023, former Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert said that "In the last 15 years, Israel did everything to downgrade the Palestinian Authority and to boost Hamas." He continued saying "Gaza was on the brink of collapse because they had no resources, they had no money, and the PA refused to give Hamas any money. Bibi saved them. Bibi made a deal with Qatar and they started to move millions and millions of dollars to Gaza."

That's interesting. Can't say I am well versed in the happenings in that region of the world, just basics.
