Based on historical sources, there is about a 6-month gap between when Yazid took power, and when Imam Husayn (A) left Mecca. There was also some time gap between when Mu'awiyah died and the news reached Medina (I don't know how long it took for messages to travel then).
Here is a timeline based on what is related:
Rajab 680 - Mu'awiyah dies
28 Rajab 680 - Imam Husayn (A) leaves Medina
3 Sha'ban 680 - Imam Husayn (A) enters Mecca
Dhu al-Hijjah - Imam Husayn (A) leaves Mecca for Iraq
We must support the oppressed wherever they are. Palestinians have been severely oppressed for over 70 years by Zionist terrorist gangs and regime and their children and women are massacred by the enemies of Islam and humanity. We must support them in every possible way as human beings if we respect our human values beside our faith. Our enemy is trying to mislead some people by creating doubts about supporting Palestinians under different excuses. Our greatest Islamic scholars who are the Maraaje' of Taqleed have clearly supported Palestinians and we must follow them and never listen to the misleading propaganda against Palestinians especially when their enemy is our enemy who occupied and still occupying Masjid Al-Aqsa and the whole Palestinian land which is a Muslim land and killed thousands of children, women and civilians and still killing more.
Imam Hasan (AS) faced an enemy ( Mo'awiyah) who had control over the richest country at that time ( Shaam) , who was ready to do everything with no limits to get the chair. Mo'awiyah was ready to kill all the believers and deny religious facts just to reach to his political goal. Imam Hasan found no way to save Islam and the sincere Muslims but to enter in a treaty with Mu'awiyah under clear conditions to give him the chair and bind him to respect Quran and Sunnah and refrain from killing sincere Muslims. Islam was saved because of that treaty of Imam Hasan (AS).
Imam Hasan (AS) knew things which we do not know as his knowledge is from the Allah (SWT) and the Prophet (SAWA) and Ameerul Mo'mineen (AS). We, with our limited knowledge are not entitled to argue on any decision of any Infallible as he does not do but what Allah (SWT) wants.
We believe that every act done by the Prophet (SAWA) and Ahlul Bayt (AS) is in favour of Islam, whether we know the details or not.
