CNN reporting on some interesting survey results from the Palestinian Center for Policy and Survey Research in Ramallah. Seven hundred and fifty adults were interviewed face to face in the West Bank, and 481 were interviewed in Gaza, also in person. The Gaza data collection was done during the recent truce, when it was safer for researchers to move about.

    Hamas is was and is a popular government. Sad given they haven’t exactly steered Gaza to a good place.

    I’m aware Israel is responsible for leveling Gaza but coming after the hostages was obviously going to happen - what’s Hamas’s end goal here?

      Rebellion.

            Noone seems to read anything here “anymore” … last few months, I don’t comment at all without opening the article. It becomes really clear that the worst commenters are not

      No it really isn’t that popular, based on polling done just before the Hamas attack.

      Like it is among the most supported among Palestinians, but that leaves out the little matter of majority of Palestinians support no one, trust no one. They support no one, see no hope of better future with any path and pretty much are living due to day trying to manage the practical matters of their lives.
