Like all MSM polls, this one must be bullshit! It sure stinks like it.
The truth is, I don't believe MSM polls anymore.
They are designed to sell Amurkns shit.
They make Bush look better than he is (can you find three in ten who like him? I can't!), and give shit #s on everything.
They are designed to promote the Zionist agenda and push a world view, folks!
Nothing else explains their shit coverage on so many issues!
"6 Palestinians Killed in Gaza at Fatah Rally" by TAGHREED EL-KHODARY and ISABEL KERSHNER
GAZA, Nov. 12 — At least six Palestinians were killed and more than 100 wounded here on Monday when a rally by the relatively pro-Western Fatah movement to mark the third anniversary of the death of its founder, Yasir Arafat, ended in armed clashes with its rival, Hamas.
Doctors at two Gaza hospitals said all of the dead and most of the wounded were Fatah supporters who had taken part in the rally.
Tens of thousands of residents of the Gaza Strip had turned out for what became the largest show of support for Fatah since the Islamist group Hamas seized control of the territory in June.
As Israel and the West have squeezed the strip in recent months, opinion surveys have indicated that the popularity of Hamas may be declining while that of Fatah may be growing.
Surveys by who?
A newly released opinion poll by the Jerusalem Media and Communications Center, an independent Palestinian organization, indicated a rise in support for Fatah at the expense of Hamas.
An independent group run by a member of Fatah! How nice!
Forty percent of the respondents said that Fatah was the party they trusted most, while 20 percent said they most trusted Hamas. Most of the rest said they trusted no party. In Gaza, 43 percent favored Fatah, and 25 percent Hamas.
In a similar poll by the center in September 2006, Fatah and Hamas came in almost neck and neck, with 31 percent and 30 percent. (The new poll was based on a random sample of 1,200 respondents in the West Bank and Gaza, with interviews conducted in person from Nov. 3 to 6, and with a margin of error of plus or minus three percentage points.)
A Fatah member said, speaking on condition of anonymity because of the tense situation in Gaza:
“Hamas has proved today that it has the military power in the Gaza Strip, but Fatah has proved that it is still alive. Just remember the hundreds of thousands who participated today.”
And just remember WHO WON ELECTIONS!
Fatah officials estimated attendance at the rally at more than 250,000. The total population of the Gaza Strip is about 1.5 million.
Hamas and Fatah accused each other of starting the violence. Ehab al-Ghsein, a spokesman for the Hamas-run Interior Ministry in Gaza, said Fatah gunmen on city rooftops fired first, wounding four members of the Hamas police. Fatah supporters also started throwing stones at the police, he said.
Hamas did not try to block the rally, in deference to the popularity of Mr. Arafat, who to many Palestinians is a symbol of national unity.
Unlike the U.S. friends in the world.
Like in Pakistan and Georgia, and who knows where else.
Mr. Ghsein accused Fatah of trying to reignite the internal strife:
“There are those who aim to bring lawlessness back to the Gaza Strip.”
Yeah, they are working for Israel!
Hazem Abu Shanab, a Fatah leader in Gaza, rejected the Hamas version of events:
“Nonsense. The shooting came from one side only, toward civilians who came out to support Fatah.”
The rally started out peacefully, with many women and children in the crowd, but the hostility between the rival camps was palpable from the start.
Hamas policemen had taken up positions on the roofs of the highest buildings, and the group’s members mingled among the crowd in civilian clothes. The Hamas police confiscated Fatah flags and posters of Mr. Arafat from the cars of Fatah supporters, and rally participants shouted provocative slogans against the Islamist group, including “Shia, Shia,” in reference to support Hamas gets from mostly Shiite Iran. A vast majority of Palestinians are Sunni Muslims.
The shooting erupted when the rally was almost over, and the violence lasted an hour and a half.
I smell Fatah agent provocateurs for Israel! That's what I'm smelling!
Fawziya Abu Karish attended the rally with her 11-year-old daughter, Amira:
“I hadn’t wanted to come, [but my brother, who was wounded in the June fighting, called me from Egypt and “begged” me] to go out in support of Fatah.”
Amira said a man standing next to her was shot in the legs from a distance.
At Shifa Hospital in Gaza City, Afaf Abu Tayeh, 45, was waiting by the morgue. She was there to look for two sons, ages 16 and 17:
Ms. Tayeh, said of Hamas:
“The Israelis were more merciful than them. They beat children in front of my eyes.”
Now I know this is ZIONIST BULLSHIT!!!!
A Palestinian said that, huh, you fucking stink liars?
Does this woman even exist, or did you shit Zionists down there just make it up?
I am tired of the FUCKING SHIT ZIONIST LIES in the papers, dammit!!!!!!!!!!!
Ashraf al-Bitar, 23, a member of the Hamas naval police, contended that Hamas had to react after Fatah gunmen started shooting and their supporters stoned the police and called them Shia.
At a mass memorial rally for Mr. Arafat in the West Bank city of Ramallah on Sunday, Mr. Abbas denounced what he called the “black coup” in Gaza and was received enthusiastically by the crowd.
Yeah, except THEY WON the ELECTIONS, asshole, so YOU are the COUPER, Abass!!!!!!!!!!
But the split between Gaza and the West Bank hung like a specter over the proceedings. Tamer Hamayel, 19, from a village outside Ramallah, said such a situation would have been impossible were Mr. Arafat still alive. “Abu Ammar held the Palestinians together,” he said, referring to the late leader by his nom de guerre.
Which is why Israel and their agent Abass poisoned him.
On Sunday night, Israeli forces detained Mariam Saleh, a Hamas member of Parliament and former minister of women’s affairs, in Ramallah, and Khaled Tafesh, a senior Hamas member in Bethlehem, a military spokesman said. About half of the 74 Hamas legislators are currently in Israeli jails.
Still? And where is the world commotion over this?
Can you imagine the reaction if Hamas had jailed Israeli legislators?
Imagine if China came over here and jailed all the Republicans.
Think AmeriKa's shit MSM would keep it quiet?
There would be nothing else on the news!!!!!!!!
But with AmeriKa's Zionist-controlled MSM, we never really hear about Israel and it's dirty shit!
But to say so is being an anti-semite.
FUCK YOU, shit NaZionists!!!!!!!!
The Israeli prime minister, Ehud Olmert, told the Foreign Affairs and Defense Committee of the Israeli Parliament on Monday that he was considering another release of Palestinian prisoners before the international Middle East peace gathering expected to take place in Annapolis, Md., in coming weeks.
So Fatah's goons can fire off more rockets, fuck with Hamas and KILL the "peace" conference, huh, you fucking NaZionist demon!?
