From the Jerusalem Post: (20:45) Poll: Hamas, Islamic Jihad tops in popularity Palestinian public support for Hamas and Islamic Jihad has overtaken support for the secular Fatah movement for the first time since the outbreak of violence in September 2000. According to the results of a poll released today by Jerusalem Media and Communication Center, support for Fatah decreased from 29.2 percent in September to 26.1% in this poll. Support for Hamas and Islamic Jihad received a combined figure of 26.6%. Just over 30% of the Palestinian public does not trust any political or religious faction. Almost 50% of Palestinians said the "ultimate goal of the current Intifada is to end occupation on the basis of UN Security Council resolution 242 and the establishment of the Palestinian state." Almost 40% believe the end goal of the current violence is a Palestinian state from the Mediterranean Sea to the Jordan River. A majority of the Palestinian people (71.9%) do not see the recent arrests of militants by the Palestinian Authority as justifiable. A random sample of 1,201 people over the age of 18 were interviewed by JMCC. The poll's margin of error is 3%.
