Not all the time in these two decades has been marked by acute conflict.
Hamas had chances to organize new elections, but they never did.
And it’s actually a diplomatic card that they failed to play.
The 2006 elections were scheduled after Israel was forced to retreat from those territories. They were a way of legitimizing Gaza as its own independent thing.
New elections would have surely been met with indignation by the Israeli regime, which would have seen them as a further way of legitimizing the independence of Gaza.
Which would have forced Israel to show all of its contradictions to the world - it claims to be the balward of democracy in the region, but then it would have opposed democratic elections that would have further legitimized the independency of the territory that it wanted to occupy.
Instead, by not scheduling new elections and staying in power indefinitely, they have simply given fuel to Netanyahu’s propaganda that Hamas is a terrorist and undemocratic regime.
