Palestinian Moderates Need Help Now
[Newsday] David Makovsky - Hamas' violent takeover of Gaza shocked Palestinians and, according to polls, many Palestinians see the move as undermining Hamas' credibility.

By 63% to 26%, Palestinians do not believe Hamas is capable of managing the affairs of Gaza.
