Post-PLC Elections survey

Near East Consulting (NEC)'s Post-PLC Elections survey of Palestinian Arabs made headlines this week thanks mainly to two results:

Do you support or oppose a peace settlement with Israel
Support 79.5% Oppose 15.5% Other 5.0%


Should Hamas change its position on the elimination of Israel?
Yes 63.2% No 20.9% Other 16.0%


The poll, carried out 27-29 January, 2006, is a telephone survey. Of the over 1,200 randomly selected Palestinians in the West Bank, the Gaza Strip, and Jerusalem they contacted, the pollsters ended up with 863 completed surveys. This 72% rate is within the range experienced
by Israeli pollsters.

Follow this link for the full results, which are very interesting.
