Polls Show Americans Wildly Deceived about Gaza War

74% of Americans think Hamas wants Genocide of Israelis; 31% think Israel wants genocide of Gazans (which Israel has actually wanted ever since Israel was founded in 1948). Americans also falsely believe that Hamas (which is supported by 88% of Palestinians) is rejected by Palestinians. How can a democracy exist in America if the public are so extremely deceived as this? It can’t (and doesn’t). So these poll findings are of wider significance than merely the Gazan war.

Palestinian Poll shows A Rise in Hamas Support and Close to 90% Wanting US Backed Abbas to Resign

RAMALLAH, West Bank (AP) A wartime opinion poll among Palestinians published Wednesday shows [strong public support for Hamas and rejection of its competitor the Palestinian Authority, which rules the West Bank and which is led by Mahmoud Abbas. (…)

57% of respondents in Gaza and 82% in the West Bank believe Hamas was correct in launching the October attack, the poll indicated. A large majority believed Hamas’ claims that it acted to defend a major Islamic shrine in Jerusalem against Jewish extremists and win the release of Palestinian prisoners. Only 10% said they believed Hamas has committed war crimes. (…)

88% want Abbas to resign, up by 10 percentage points from three months ago. In the West Bank, 92% called for the resignation of the octogenarian. (…) nearly 60% now saying it [the Palestinian Authority] should be dissolved. In the West Bank, [the US Government backed] Abbas’ continued security coordination with Israel’s military against Hamas, his bitter political rival, is widely unpopular [amongst Palestinians even in the West Bank]. (…)

The level of anti Americanism and anti Westernism is huge among Palestinians because of the positions they have taken regarding international humanitarian law and what is happening in Gaza. [See this and this] (…)

The survey was conducted from November 22 to December 2 among 1,231 people in the West Bank and Gaza and had an error margin of 4 percentage points. In Gaza, poll workers conducted 481 in person interviews during a weeklong ceasefire that ended December 1.

News that the US Regime Blocks from the Public

First of all, the US regime blocks from the public the scientifically proven fact that America IS a regime, a dictatorship, instead of a democracy, Just click onto the link there in order to get to the evidence on that fact.

Of course, all of the evidence that there was a US coup in February 2014 in Ukraine, and that Ukraine has been controlled by the US regime ever since, is likewise hidden from the public.

For example, there is no mention of this fact about Ukraine that it’s been a US colony since 2014 in an 18 December 2023 Washington Post ‘news’ report that headlined “Listening devices found in office of Ukraine’s top general, Valery Zaluzhny”, though the fact that a power struggle is now taking place within that US colony (‘ally’) is crucially important in order to understand what’s happening there, and, so, that WP ‘news’ story blocks truthful understanding of what is going on. That ‘news’ story even fails to mention, or even hint, that what is going on is a power struggle within Ukraine’s government, and, then, it is even so bold as to speculate that this spying upon Ukraine’s General Zaluzhny was done “possibly by Russian special services,” and the WP provided zero evidence for that extremely unlikely alternative explanation.

Here is a 26 minute long video discussion of these events which comes from a non regime news-source and provides the necessary context in order to understand what’s actually happening to Ukraine’s government now, and it makes clear that a ferocious power struggle is now going on within the government of Ukraine. Here is a different presentation, an article instead of a video, that likewise is from a non Establishment news site that’s not censored. Both the video and the article offer facts that the billionaires want the public not to know: that Ukraine’s government is now falling apart.

Similarly, the fact that as I documented on 17 December 2023 “Polls Show Americans Wildly Deceived About Gaza War” is blocked from the public, by the US regime which censorship actually explains WHY “Polls Show Americans Wildly Deceived About Gaza War”.

What happens when a public are so extremely deceived, as this? How is it even POSSIBLE for such a nation to BE a democracy? IS it possible?

Americans were blatantly lied-to by our Government and by its ‘news’-media, both Republican and Democratic in the lead up to our invasion and destruction of Iraq in 2003, which ‘news’ not only failed to expose and contradict the regime’s lies about “Saddam’s WMD” which were provably lies even at the time they were being reported, and, yet, despite the Government’s and media’s having lied in order to produce popular support to perpetrate that atrocity, Americans continue, even to this day, to subscribe to these same lying ‘news’-media, a full twenty years after the fact. First, the lies were reported as if they were instead truths; then when the falsehoods could no longer be denied to have been falsehoods, ‘intelligence errors’ were said to have caused the falsehoods, but never was the truth published, that both the Government and its ‘news’-media had intentionally deceived their public in order to carry-out the US empire’s program as being the result of a ‘democracy’ not as it actually was, the result of a dictatorship. It is a dictatorship by and for an ‘elite’ who consist of the richest 1% and mainly by the richest 0.1% of the richest 1% of the American public, an aristocracy of extreme wealth.

Moreover, censorship pervades not only America’s international news but also its domestic news. For example, On 14 November 2023, I headlined “America and its allies are CLEARLY declining powers”, and documented that in terms of Gross Domestic Product at Purchasing Power Parity, which has become the standard way of comparing national economies, the world during 1990 to 2022 rose 5.58 times, Russia rose 5.33 times, the US rose 4.24 times, the EU rose 3.90 times, and China rose 21.83 times. Yes, that’s 21.83 times, just look at the figures there yourself: this is real but censored out. The reason for Russia’s sub par performance during that period was that in the 1990’s, the period’s first ten years, the US controlled Russia, and Harvard’s economics Department was brought in to ‘advise’ Yeltsin’s Government on how to convert to a capitalist economy by cutting America’s billionaires in on and making ‘partners’ of Russians that they and Yeltsin’s people would select to skim Russia’s economy, so that Russia’s economy crashed during those years. Putin came into power when Yeltsin quit on the first day of the new Millennium, he took control away from the billionaires and their US partners, and Russia’s economy started taking off like a rocket within three years and has kept doing so ever since, benefitting the Russian people enormously.

On 6 December 2023, I headlined what would have come as shocking news to my fellow Americans if the US and allied ’news’ media hadn’t been hiding it all along, “America: A record of Economic Failure for the Past 25 Years”, and documented that between the first day of 1998 and the last day of 2022 (this 25 year period during which Putin has been in power:

China’s economy grew 6.4 times (“x 6.4”) over those 25 years, Russia’s grew 5.9 times over those 25 years, India’s grew 2.96 times over those 25 years, US’s grew 1.36 times over those 25 years, EU’s grew 1.40 times during those 25 years, Japan’s grew 1.17 times over those 25 years, and South Korea’s grew 2.37 times over those 25 years.

Here is the performance of the entire world over those 25 years

https://tradingeconomics.com/world/gdp-per-capita-ppp-us-dollar-wb-data.html 25 year = 22/7 = x 3.14

Som x 3.14 is the global average performance over the most-recent 25 year period..

In other words, whereas India performed slighly worse than the global average, the US, EU, Japan, and South Korea, performed considerably worse than the global average during those 25 years.

So, while Putin has been in power in Russia (2000 – 2022), its economy has been performing almost as well as China’s. The US regime and its allies want to get rid of Putin and of Xi because Russia and China under the present leadership have soared way past the US and its colonies (‘allies’), and the leaders of the U.S. and its allies want to do to Russia and to China what they already have done to Iraq, Syria, Ukraine, and Libya, and what they’ve been trying to do to Iran and Venezuela: take them over and destroy them for the benefit of US-and-allied billionaires. After all: war is profitable for billionaires.

The Gallup international polling organization scientifically samples public opinion in numerous countries, and their poll-findings in Russia, which started in 2006, are what one would reasonably expect to find there, “Do you feel safe walking alone at night in the city or area where you live?” started at 22% Yes in 2006 and has risen steadily to 71% Yes in 2203, “Are you satisfied or dissatisfied with your freedom to choose what you do with your life? % Satisfied” started at 42% Yes in 2010 and has risen steadily to 75% Yes in 2023, “Is the local economy getting better?” started at 30% Yes in 2006 and has risen unsteadily to 56% in 2023, and, overall, Gallup said that, “Sanctions the West has imposed on Russia’s economy have not dented Russians’ economic optimism.” These findings were reported by Gallup on 8 December 2008, under the headline “From the Kremlin to the Kitchen: Russian Life in 6 Charts” and were not published in any mainstream US and allied news medium.

America’s aristocrats do not themselves and directly do the censoring out of the key facts, but, instead, their corporations carefully hire and, when dissatisfied, demote or fire the employees and agents who do this dirty work of deceiving the public, on their behalf. This is the way that the empire, and ANY empire, functions.

It has become not merely the norm but the rule within the US empire, and it is yet another historical example of the solidly established fact that censorship is essential to any dictatorship, and toxic to any democracy. And isn’t that fact likewise being censored-out by the billionaires? In the worst cases, censorship is even being presumed to be necessary in order for democracy to function. That constitutes the ultimate lie, and many people believe it.

Investigative historian Eric Zuesse’s new book, AMERICA’S EMPIRE OF EVIL: Hitler’s Posthumous Victory, and Why the Social Sciences Need to Change, is about how America took over the world after World War II in order to enslave it to US and allied billionaires. Their cartels extract the world’s wealth by control of not only their ‘news’ media but the social ‘sciences’, duping the public.
