Sure thing Palestine deserve an *independent government but the timing to recognise Palestinian statehood -- However what are they recognising?

For clarity: *independent of Hamas -- government ie: currently ruled by terror not by democratically elected government
Palestinian civilians are between a rock and a hard place. I doubt they voted for Hamas. Hamas win was already in the bag even before the polling booths opened! also Maths doesn't add up? 44.45% of 132 seats is 58? Rigged!
I reckon, majority just wants to live in freedom, peace and security
