74% of West Bank Palestinians support terrorism to achieve their goals; 64% say Hamas must keep its weapons no matter what

The Institute for Social and Economic Progress, a Palestinian group, conducted a poll of West Bank Palestinians in May.

The poll highlighted how BDS is very popular, but didn't want to publicize that nearly three out of four support "armed resistance" (i.e., terrorism) as well.



Other findings:

Over 75% say Hamas should only accept a ceasefire in Gaza if it is permanent and includes full Israeli withdrawal and an end to restrictions on imports. 

In other words, they only support a ceasefire if Israel surrenders.

64.3% say Hamas should never surrender their arms, at any cost.

63.4% would accept living in an Islamic (sharia law) state.

And while Hamas is not as popular as in the past - only 15.9% would vote for Hamas - that is still far more than the number that would vote for Fatah, 6.3%, which is a record low. (20% would vote for independent candidates and 35% would refuse to vote.)

Remember - these are the "moderates."

No wonder Western media ignored this poll. It doesn't fit the narrative.
