This says 28,6% of all palestinians on the west bank and in Gaza now vote for Hamas. It was 19,3% april last year.Hamas har nå en oppslutning på 28,6 prosent blant palestinerne på Vestbredden og Gazastripen, mot 19,3 prosent i april i fjor.
Fatah har gått tilbake fra 34 til 27,9 prosent, viser målingen som er utført av Jerusalem Media & Communication Centre.
Fremgangen for Hamas er aller størst på Vestbredden, der de har gått frem fra 12,8 til 26,5 prosent de siste to månedene.
This says Fatah now would get 27,9% of the votes, compared to 34% before.
On the West Bank, Hamas now has 26,5% of the votes compared to 12,8% before, if an election was to be held.
This poll is done by Jerusalem Media & Communication Centre.
Further on, about half the palestinians now support rockets and suicide bombers, and 40% are now against peace negotiations with Israel.
Anthony H. Cordesman at the Center for Strategic and International Studies in the USA, confirmes this, and says the gaza war was failed and did the opposite of what Israel wanted.
In other words, the hate is stronger now and they are further away from peace than ever. This is however what Israel really wants, since they now can grab all the land they want, because there is no serious negotiations. Like Sharon said, grab as much land as you can now, because what we take now will stay ours.
So to you who thought Hamas "forced" ppl to support them, as you can see, they are more loved than ever. And this war was indeed a big, big failure, just like the Lebanon war where Hezbollah actually managed to win.
