See Why Less Than 14% Of Gazans Think Their Economy Is The Most Important Issue

According to a poll by the Ramallah-based Jerusalem Media and Communications Centre, less than 14% of Gazans think that their economy is the most important issue:
Respondents’ opinions varied between the West Bank and Gaza Strip on the most important issue concerning the Palestinian people. Nearly 28 percent (27.6%) of respondents in the
West Bank said the economic situation was the most important issue while 29.8% of Gazan
respondents said the internal split was the most important issue. Conversely, a ratio of 10.9%
of respondents in the West Bank said the internal split was the most important issue compared
with 13.8% of respondents in Gaza who said the economic situation was the most important issue.
