It is striking, if unsurprising, that the demonstrations against Hamas being mounted by thousands of Gazans have gone almost totally unremarked by the media and supposedly pro-Palestinian supporters in Britain and America.

The protests have been going on for several days. On Wednesday, hundreds of Palestinian Arabs rallied in Beit Lahiya in the northern Gaza Strip, chanting “Hamas out” and “Enough death.” This was despite some high-profile killings of protesters by Hamas designed to put the uprising down.

Abdulrahman Sha’aban Abu Samra was shot dead by Hamas while waiting in line for flour in Deir al-Balah. Uday Al-Raba’i had denounced Hamas on social media and in a coffee shop. According to Palestinian Media Watch, Hamas operatives dragged him alive through the streets tied to the back of a car and then dumped him on his family to die.
