      Palestinian Islamic Jihad which polled at 72% against 43% for Hamas.

      That said Hamas is becoming more popular now that they have caused his mayhem. They may become once again the most popular party.

        I can’t find those numbers in the link you posted. Can you show me with a screenshot?

          Shared that last one as it was more recent but I was citing this one from memory:

            Could you list the actual survey and what their sample size was rather than just a picture?

            And so you took numbers from two different sources and conflated them into a single statement. I don’t think that’s logical nor well done, tbh.

              You were asking for a picture I gave you a picture.

              Here’s the methodology : https://www.washingtoninstitute.org/policy-analysis/polls-show-majority-gazans-were-against-breaking-ceasefire-hamas-and-hezbollah

              I gave the other poll as it showed the impact of the war on Hamas popularity.

              Hamas is popular in Palestine and other more radical parties are even more popular. There doesn’t need to be a conspiracy for Hamas to exist, religion + an Apartheid state right next door is enough.

                You originally said:

                Do you realise most Palestinians living in the west bank prefer an even more radical political party ? Hamas is progressive for Palestine.

                But the report you gave me now is about opinions in Gaza and not the West Bank.

                  Yup that’s a mistake dunno why I talked about the west bank when Fatah is the governing body there.

                  Thanks for the correction.

        Hamas’s popularity or not is irrelevant, since the IDF has stated they are going to eliminate Hamas entirely, and is absolutely poised to do that.

        Whether you agree with it or not, Hamas is unlikely to exist by 2024.
