The Israeli rescue service Zaka says its paramedics removed more than 260 bodies from a music festival that came under attack by Hamas militants.

The total figure of bodies found is expected to be higher, as other paramedic teams were also working in the area and Zaka added that the bodies “haven’t all been collected yet”.

Early on Saturday morning, Hamas targeted Nova music festival, a techno rave in the desert near the border with Gaza.

Videos shared on social media and by Israeli news outlets showed dozens of festival-goers running through an open field as gunshots rang out. Many hid in nearby fruit orchards or were gunned down as they fled.

    At last count, Hamas had something like a 75 percent approval rating in Gaza.

    The support among all Palestinians is just over 50 percent.

    Only 14 percent support the opposition party.

        People trash studies constantly as if they know the one thing wrong with it that just makes it all a lie.

        No, most studies are pretty damn robust. There are numerous well known statistical analysis methods that fall in line with real life outcomes despite limited n.

        Chances are, unless you’re a statistics analyst publishing polls yourself, your methodoligies aren’t better.

        You can almost always find the reputable studies papers or methods too. They don’t exactly hide them.

        Keep harping about how they’re wrong though when properly cited. It just paints a red flag on your head lol.

      Being in their position, I think I’d also support the only group fighting for my liberty and rights, even if they are morally tainted.
