The survey, conducted THIS WEEK by Harvard-Harris polling, found 51% of Americans between the ages of 18 and 24 said they believed the long-term answer to the Israel-Palestinian conflict was for “Israel to be ended and given to Hamas and the Palestinians.”

Only 32% said they believed in a two-state solution, and just 17% said other Arab states should be asked to absorb Palestinian populations.

    Hamas sucks, but of the three options its the best because its the only that includes giving Palestine back to the Palestinians. I personally don't believe Hamas would ever be able to actually govern Palestine and would collapse almost immediately if put in charge and a more secular party would take over.

      this is a bit silly - if Isntreal somehow collapsed and Hamas took over, they'd rightly be credited for accomplishing that and have support from every Palestinian for decades. no other party would have a chance.

      It's half joking. Both DFLP and PFLP call for critical support for Hamas at the current time.
