"There has been a recent study conducted by Arab World for Research and Development (AWRAD) among Palestinians living in Gaza and the West Bank, and the results are profoundly depressing.
A recent poll by Arab World for Research and Development
AWRAD is an internationally respected research and consultancy agency based in Palestine.
Rejection of peace and reconciliation
The great majority are against peace with Israel on any terms:
75% support the October 7 massacre
85.9% reject coexistence with Israel
71.1% are committed to the restoration of “historical Palestine” as a final resolution
74.7% support the creation of a Palestinian state “from the river to the sea” as the only acceptable resolution of the conflict.
Support for terrorism
There is almost universal support for terror:
76% believe that Hamas plays a somewhat to very positive role
84% believe that Palestinian Islamic Jihad (PIJ) plays a somewhat to very positive role
79.8% believe that Fatah’s terror wing, the Al-Aqsa Martyrs’ Brigades, plays a somewhat to very positive role
88.6% believe that Hamas’ armed wing, the Al-Kassam Brigades, plays a somewhat to very positive role.
Terror organisations have far higher support than Fatah
Fatah is hardly a force for moderation, but they are far too moderate for their own people:
87.3% of the Palestinians believe that the Palestinian Authority plays a negative role
Only 8.4% believe that the PA should govern the West Bank and Gaza
85.8% support Hamas continuing to play a role in the Palestinian government
13.6% support a Hamas-only government
72.2% support a “national unity” government of Fatah and Hamas.
Ingratitude and hostility towards aid providers
Negativity towards aid providers is extreme:
98.2% of Palestinians see the U.S. role as negative
96.7% consider the UK role as negative
92.6% consider the EU role as negative.
85.5% believe that these countries support Israel because of “hatred of Arabs
79.5% believe that support is the result of “hatred of Muslims and Islam”
More moderate Arab countries working towards peace are equally hated:
96% disapprove of the UAE
95.5% disapprove of Saudi Arabia
84.6% disapprove of Egypt
75.6% disapprove of Jordan.
Unrealistic views on the current military situation
As an indication of the levels of self-delusion in operation here:
72.6% said “Palestine” will win the current military conflict
3.1% said Israel will win.
