Hamas support surges in West Bank according to Poll

A public opinion poll in the occupied West Bank has revealed a surge in support for Hamas, while support for Fatah and the Palestinian Authority has dipped.

The poll, which conducted by the Jerusalem Media and Communication Centre, in cooperation with German NGO Friedrich Ebert-Stiftung, revealed a split in opinion among Palestinians between a two state or one state solution.

It also showed a division in opinion over the best form of Palestinian resistance to achieve national goals, between armed resistance or peaceful resistance.
