Palestinian poll: Faith in Hamas government on the rise - Haaretz - Israel News

Palestinian poll: Faith in Hamas government on the rise - Haaretz - Israel News: "The survey showed a decline in support for a two-state solution to the Palestinian-Israeli conflict to 52.4 percent. Support for suicide attacks also declined slightly, from 49.7 percent in February to 44.8 percent in June.

One surprising finding of the poll is that Prime Minister Ismail Haniyeh was voted the most trustworthy Palestinian leader by 18.2 percent of respondents, followed by 13 percent for PA Chairman Mahmoud Abbas and 5.6 percent for Marwan Barghouti.

'The most notable fact regarding this question is the leadership crisis perceived by Palestinians,' Khatib said, with '27 percent saying they didn't believe in any leader.'
