Their logic is that Palestinians represent a credible existential threat to Jewish people internationally in the same way that Hitler’s military did, so that criticism of IDF bombing campaigns is equivalent to Naziism, and Palestinian resistance is identified as genocide against Israel.

And since you asked that question in bad faith now it's my turn. Is bombing hospitals, schools, and aid convoys terrorism, or is it terrorism unless it's the IDF doing it to Palestinians, specifically?

Where's Daddy, animuchan?

The IDF, given the limited resources, comically unreliable allies, and the hostage situation, is doing a great job. You labeled your own argument to the contrary as being in bad faith because we both know that. :)

False.

The PCPSR polls (the only ones anyone is talking about) do show broad support for the statement that the Oct 7th attack was "correct". But overwhelmingly (91%) they do not believe that atrocities against civilians occurred during the attacks. 81 percent also said they did not watch videos published by international organizations showing atrocities, for a variety of reasons.

Which is still troubling, of course. But the reality of what these people actually said is entirely different from what you're describing.

Unfortunately some news outlets (such as the Times of Israel, AP) chose to present misleading characterizations of second poll in particular, which of course then got pasted all over social media.

The IDF is doing a great job.

Meanwhile there's plenty of denial going around as to atrocities committed by the IDF as well, of course. But this is a different topic.

So it seems your response is: on the basis of what you saw in some videos regarding an event in the Old City a little ways back -- most Palestinians are pathological liars, and that's all there is to it.

I saw the videos taken inside Al-Aqsa mosque, not just "some videos" and that considerably differed from what Palestinians claimed. And no, this is not an isolated event, just an example of very consistent pattern of lying.

Now about the 7ht October. Hamas paraded the captured civilians through Gaza and was welcomed by thousands of spectators. Honestly, the claim that 91% of the people are not at all aware of any atrocities against civilians can only mean two possibilities - they are lying or they do not consider it atrocities.
