\r\n\tIsraeli media have warned about the likelihood of a Hamas win in the upcoming municipal election.<\/p>\r\n
\r\n\tActing PA chairman, Mahmoud Abbas has been warned that Hamas is about to win the local elections in the occupied West Bank in a landslide and urged to cancel them, Israel’s Channel 2 News reported Friday.<\/p>\r\n
\r\n\tThe local elections are scheduled to take place in about six weeks and the Israeli Channel Two admits that the younger Palestinian generation which studies in universities favors Hamas wins by a large margin.<\/p>\r\n
\r\n\tThe channel noted that polls before the 2006 elections in Gaza also failed to predict Hamas’s decisive victory in that vote.<\/p>\r\n
\r\n\tOfficials in Abbas’s Fatah party reportedly warned the PA chairman, “Do not hold these elections, you will present the West Bank to Hamas on a silver platter.”<\/p>","content_source":null,"content_url":null,"content_columns":"0","content_date_start":"2016-08-27 14:41:53","content_date_finish":"2016-08-27 14:41:53","content_date_register":"2016-08-27 14:41:53","content_date_last_edit":"0000-00-00 00:00:00","content_show_img":"1","content_show_details":"1","content_show_related_img":"1","content_show_slider":"1","content_show_title_slider":"1","content_comment":"0","content_score":"0","content_recorded":"0","content_confirmed":"1","content_status":"1","content_kind":"0","old_id":"127776","tag_id":null,"tag_word":null,"tag_service":null,"tag_total":null,"tag_soundex":null,"attach_token":"3315824370","attach_date_register":"2016-08-27 14:42:00","attach_id":"136456","attach_file_ext":"jpg","attach_file_header":"image\/jpeg","attach_img_type":"2","attach_img_width":"821","attach_img_height":"438","attach_file_media":"1","attach_show_watermark":"0","score_average":null,"score_count":null,"score_date_last":null,"visit_count":"609","visit_date_last":"2025-05-10 17:21:17","attach_title":"Israeli media wary over Hamas win","node_title":"Commentaries","ot_node_left_right":"[{\"node_id\":134, \"left\":25, \"right\":26}]"}]]
