Opiniepeiling Palestijnen over leiderschap Hamas en Abbas

 
Niet alleen is Fatah een stuk populairder dan Hamas, bijna 70% van de Palestijnen vindt dat Hamas haar beleid en daden eens kritisch moet heroverwegen. Ook veroordelen Palestijnen de Hamas overname van de Gazastrook:
 
7.   During the last five years, the main danger that occurred internally is the Hamas-takeover in Gaza strip.
Agree 59.7
Disagree 29.3
Not sure11.0
 
Al die zogenaamde Palestijnse vrienden die pleiten voor praten met Hamas zonder enige voorwaarden, moeten zich afvragen of wat zij voorstaan wel in het voordeel van de Palestijnen is. Praten met Hamas versterkt haar positie en legitimiteit, ten koste van Fatah. Een sterker Hamas zal nog hogere eisen stellen aan Fatah wat betreft een nieuwe eenheidsregering, en de kans op een compromis daardoor verkleinen.
