PRESS RELEASE

Palestinian Public Opinion Poll No (34)

While the balance of power between Fateh and Hamas remains as it was before
the eruption of the Goldstone Report crisis, the majority does not blame
Hamas for the continued split between the West Bank and the Gaza Strip or
for the failure to hold national elections; indeed a majority supports the
president's decision not to run in the next elections and a majority opposes
holding elections before reconciliation link
