Palestinians trust Hamas more than any other group

The latest Arab Barometer poll of Palestinians has been released, the third one since the Gaza war. 

On most questions, the answers are roughly what they were in previous polls, but there is one major difference: West Bank Palestinians now trust Hamas more than any other Palestinian group.

Trust in Hamas went up from 18% to 46% from those surveyed:


This is higher than the percentage who trust the legal system (34%,) civil society organizations (38%) and religious leaders (25%.)


Another interesting result is that misogyny is increasing. The percentage of those who agree that men are better suited as political leaders rose from 63% to 75%. Also, the share who believe men should have the final say in family matters rose from 44% to 57%.

Which makes this sign accurate in the opposite way it was intended.
