A recent poll reveals an intriguing shift in⁣ sentiment⁤ among‌ Palestinians regarding the ⁣future of the Gaza Strip once the conflict⁢ with Israel ceases.

Support ⁣for Hamas Amidst Conflict

Surprisingly, over 50% of Gazans now support ​continued Hamas⁢ rule post-conflict, marking a significant 14-point surge in recent months. This sentiment raises ⁣eyebrows given the ⁢immense suffering in ⁤Gaza.

Public Opinion Amidst Conflict

The survey, conducted with ⁢1,580 adults‍ in early March, sheds‍ light on stark perceptions of war crimes. ⁢While almost all⁢ Palestinians view Israel’s actions as war crimes, a‌ similar consensus is absent regarding Hamas.

  • Support for Hamas’s recent actions varied, with a decline in the West Bank but a rise in Gaza.
  • Anticipation for Hamas’s victory is growing, especially in Gaza.

Preferences‌ in Post-Conflict Governance

When asked about post-war governance ⁣in Gaza, ‍a majority ⁤across the territories favored Hamas, ⁣indicating ⁢a strong desire for their return to power.

  • Support for Hamas has seen fluctuations, with a notable increase in Gaza.
  • The preference for Hamas ruling‍ Gaza post-war is noteworthy, especially considering historical dynamics.

Performance Evaluation and Satisfaction

Despite some shifts, overall satisfaction ‌with Hamas’s performance during the conflict remains at 70%. While satisfaction slightly varies between Gaza and the West Bank, the ⁤general sentiment remains stable.

Outlook for the Future

Expectations of Hamas’s dominance post-conflict are high, hinting at a potentially different ‍landscape in Gaza in the aftermath of the war.

On the other hand, support for the current Palestinian Authority government, especially ‍under Abbas’s leadership, remains notably low.

As the conflict persists, the evolving⁢ preferences and perceptions among Palestinians paint a‌ complex‌ picture of their aspirations and expectations in the post-war scenario.
