Townhall ^ | 06/15/2024 | Matt Vespa
It’s not like this is a shocking survey. We’ve known that for years, the Palestinian people, the so-called innocent civilians, support Hamas. They voted them into power back in 2005 and have allowed the terror group to rule the Gaza Strip for nearly a generation. The international community thinks Hamas can be reasoned with—are they taking hits from Hunter Biden’s crack pipe? You cannot if anything has shown us over the past few weeks and months. They’ve rejected every ceasefire proposal because civilian casualties are not a byproduct of their operations; it’s their agenda. And the people here, for the...

A poll released Wednesday found rising support for the Hamas terror group among Palestinians, both in the West Bank and in Gaza. The poll, conducted by the Palestinian Center for Policy and Survey Research (PCPSR) between May 26 and June 1, found that overall support for Hamas in the Palestinian territories stood at 40%, a six-point increase from the previous survey three months ago. Only some 20% support the Fatah party of Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas, which governs Palestinian areas of the West Bank. Before the war, overall support for Hamas stood at 22% and support for Fatah stood...

NY Post ^ | May 2, 2024 | Carl Campanile
The vast majority of New Yorkers believe that the anti-Israel protests on Big Apple campuses were fueled by antisemitism — and they support the police crackdown on the ugly demonstrations, an eye-opening new poll shows. Sixty-one percent of registered voters from across the Empire State agreed that the campus protesters “have forgotten that Hamas started this war” and that the demonstrations “have crossed the line into anti-Semitism,” according to a Sienna College poll.

One of the arguments you've probably heard circulating during the war in Gaza is that there's a difference between Hamas, who the US government and most sane people see as terrorists, and Palestinians, who are usually portrayed as innocent civilians. An inconvenient fact for supporters of this division is that Hamas is not just a militant group operating in Gaza, they are the elected leaders of Gaza. Nevertheless, we're told that not all Palestinians support Hamas.But a new poll released Wednesday calls into question that idea. In fact, Hamas, its leaders and the attack on Israel on 10/7 remain remarkably...

Zero percent of Palestinians in the West Bank described Hamas's Oct. 7 terror attacks as illegitimate resistance against Israel, according to a poll released earlier this month. In a poll from the Qatar-based Arab Center for Research and Policy Studies, West Bank respondents were asked whether the attacks constituted an illegitimate operation. Seventy-nine percent said the attacks were legitimate, 11 percent said they were a flawed but legitimate resistance operation, and 4 percent said they were a legitimate operation that involved heinous or criminal acts. Support for the position that the Oct. 7 attacks were an illegitimate operation did not...

If you haven't been worried by the reactions of so many American students, professors, and university presidents over the Hamas terror attacks against Israel on October 7, then maybe you haven't been paying attention. Antisemitism has run rampant on many campuses, and when three top school heads appeared before Congress, they failed to condemn "protesters" who were harassing Jewish students, shouting "intifada revolution," and calling for the extermination of the entire country.But the news about the poison being spread in our system of higher education just keeps getting more disturbing as a new Harvard-Harris poll shows that an astonishing 51...

[Make sure to read Daniel Greenfield’s contributions in Jamie Glazov’s new book: Barack Obama’s True Legacy: How He Transformed America.]Ever since Hamas and Islamic Jihad terrorists, along with ordinary Arab Muslims from Gaza, invaded Israel, murdered, raped and kidnapped women and children, the debate has been about how innocent they are. And how easy Israel should be willing to go on them.In the weeks since, Israel has been lectured about a “disproportionate” response and the urgent need to avoid civilian casualties. That’s a little tricky when fighting an Islamic terrorist group whose only real defensive strategy is hiding behind civilians....

American Thinker ^ | 11/17/2023 | Monica Showalter
In the wake of Hamas's October 7 terror attack on Israeli civilians, with its mass rapes, murders, kidnappings, and other atrocities, it would seem pretty natural to think that the "ordinary" Palestinians would turn against Hamas, which is as evil an organization as ISIS. Hamas members even admit it.Bzzt! Wrong.The specter of Jewish bloodshed seems to have strengthened their support for Hamas.According to the Elder of Ziyon blog:A new poll from AWRAD, Arab World for Research and Development, shows that the vast majority of Palestinians support the October 7 pogrom. 75% of all Palestinians supported the massacre while only 12.7%...

Main Findings: This poll examines the 75th anniversary of the Nakba. Findings indicate that the overwhelming majority of Palestinians blame Arab or international parties or the Zionist movement for the Nakba, while internal Palestinian weakness comes at the bottom of the list. Although this outcome was expected, the small percentage that saw Palestinian weakness as responsible for the Nakba indicates the persistence of a huge Palestinian sense of victimhood. However, when asked about the most damaging developments since the Nakba, the largest percentage referred to internal division, the split between the West Bank and the Gaza Strip, while the Israeli...

Nearly 300 kids died in the massacre. Another 40 were kidnapped and 1,300 Jews were slaughtered in the Saturday Hamas attack. Babies were slaughtered. Elementary schools were targeted. Dining halls were targeted. Hamas Islamists tossed grenades into bomb shelters where kids were hiding blowing them to bits. Hamas is still releasing videos of their fighters killing Jews for sport. A poll conducted by the Palestinian Center for Public Opinion (PCPO) back in 2014 found that 89% of Palestinians support terror attacks against Israel. That is quite a majority. The poll results are: (88.9%) support the firing of rockets from Gaza...

Palestinians: We Prefer Terrorism to Peace with Israel The findings of the poll, which was conducted between June 7 and 11, show that the Biden Administration and all those who continue to talk about reviving the peace process between Israel and the Palestinians are living under an illusion. The results of the poll indicate that most Palestinians are more interested in killing Jews than making peace with them. The results, in addition, show that most Palestinians want as a successor to their current leader, PA President Mahmoud Abbas, who has ties to terror. According to the poll, the largest percentage...

As the deaths of Gazan children in Jabalia on Aug 6, 2022 was shown to be a result of, yet, another Islamic Jihad failed rocket, one should remember the wider deadly problem in that circle.The BBC's Jeremy Bowen, reporting from Gaza on May 21, 2021, (amidst Guardian of Walls against Hamas barrage of rockets) showed a Gazan in the crowd screaming in ecstatic: "We sacrifice everything for Jerusalem. I'm sacrificing my wife my child for Jerusalem." While cheers can be heard. And this is how he reported it on BBC live TV. Then it was edited and the part of...
