1. The mere existence of such a poll...
Chatich   (02.08.10)
...drips with orwellian irony wrapped in kafkaesque horror. So, who's -your- favorite mass-murdering terrorist? How about the brave crusher of babies' skulls, kuntar? Or red-hand guy from the ramallah "police" station lynching?These guys would also make great arab leaders. bin laden is so 'nineties'. I know, how about a phone-in variety show? We could call it Jihadi Idol. Each contestent would have to kill a Jew and the home audience could call in to vote for who did it the best. Get me simon cowell on the horn...
2. Poll
Louis Fried ,   Woodbridge   (02.08.10)
Not surprising that Obama is so popular among the Arabs. His administration has been hostile to Israel from day one. He has shown his true colours ever since the infamous Cairo speech. He is not trustworthy and he will sacrifice Israel first chance he gets.
3. enough said
Barney ,   USA   (02.08.10)
these people are beyond hope. force. force. force. is all they understand. the mentality is no mentality. they have made their 7th century bed to live in. the rest of the world progresses and they slip deeper into the abyss. pitiful
4. I favor ben laudin....
Bunnie Meyer ,   Los Angeles, CA USA   (02.08.10)
chained to a ball and chain in a pig pen.
5. The deeper you are in a cave, the more popular to Palis.

6. shocked. really.
ben Ish   (02.08.10)
So Muslims favor Imam Hussein Ubama, who bows to the Saudi King, fondly recalls his Islamic upbringing, talks about how he loves the morning call to prayer and often mentions his Muslim family? He talks about the "Holy Quran" and talks about how bad the bible is??? You mean the same Ubama they built a statue of in front of his Islamic childhood school, where he was registered as a Muslim? And you say Muslims like him MORE than George Bush??? Wow. That's amazing. Did you figure that out all by yourself? Impressive. Almost as impressive as rocks that do not float on water. You should write articles about how words can be formed into sentences. I'll tell you what, let me buy you a pack of gum, I'll show you how to chew it.
7. to #1 this survey show palis true nature
ghostq   (02.08.10)
it's the ooposite for peace to them peace means war with max bloodshed, which kinda contradict thevery meaning of peace.
8. to #4 y would you do that to sweet innocent genle
ghostq   (02.08.10)
ceatures like pigs, they did nothing wrong to you, that would be pigabuse. just let him spend the day with paris hilton after her he will take his own life.
9. 98% support by Shia in Lebanon....
Marco ,   Spain   (02.08.10)
is more than enough for Hezbollah to remain your worst nightmare forever....lol
10. 98% in favor of Hezbolla-Nasrallah among shias in Lebanon...
Hezbollah fighter ,   Lebanon   (02.08.10)
You people never ever had such a popular support for any of your incompetent leaders.
11. Doubtful poll
Sami ,   Lebanon   (02.08.10)
Don’t know how accurate these polls are especially for muslim leaders. Karzai earn16% in territory? That is funny. I think Karzai won’t enjoy such rating in Afghanistan itself. Abass 27% in Indonesia? I don’t know if they ever know who is Abbas there. And Turkey poll regarding Nassrallah 3% !! come on give me a break we all know the shift in the Turkish population mood toward Islamic world . What about Israel ,I would imagine the settlers leaders will have the highest score beside Liberman ,Ayalon and alike personality from the far extreme right . Enjoy :)
12. Nigeria What?
Prince, Niger Delta ,   Nigeria   (02.08.10)
If these "Pool Operators" Were to come back to Nigeria they will never live to regret this blasphemy and libel written here against my Country. What do you think of Nigeria? An Islamic nation or what? In my Country we have Islam and Christianity but both are equal in number or christianity is slightly greater in number. Which part of Nigeria was this poll taken as to represent 150 million Nigerians. Which is more than 75 million Nigerians approve of Bin Laden Evil and foolish poll
13. Pew Research Center Seeks to Tarnish Palestine's Image?
Nour ,   Palestine   (02.08.10)
This is obviously a smear campaign against Palestinians. Bin Laden is despised by most Palestinians, since he has not served the Palestinian cause in any way other than tarnish our image and align his terrorist agenda with our just humanitarian-rooted cause. If everyone is in doubt just who is behind the "PEWWWW" Centre, just visit the website and look at the board of directors. Jew + Zionist Galore! YNET -> Good one, and nice try. PEW: Stop SPEWING hate.
14. To Nour
Eyal ,   Israel   (02.08.10)
Were the images of palestinians gloating after 9/11 also part of a smear campaign conducted by a galore of jews and zionists?
15. 13 - palestinian's "image"?
mike ,   israel (formerly usa   (02.08.10)
funny how to smear palestinians = report facts. palestinians don't have an image problem. they have societal problems (terror, gender apartheid, pursuing genocide, etc) which should be addressed, not covered up.
16. Why do the Palestinians like binLaden?!
Salma ,   Palestine   (02.08.10)
mmmm Because he is like the Hamburger (American industry)
17. logic issues
Hadi ,   USA   (02.08.10)
article says that Palestinians favor Bin Laden over hamas. This is not true if you asked the Palestinians who would you prefer ruling over you Hamas or Bin Laden, they will prefer Hamas. because hamas is a bit cooler (less strict) than taliban. They are like hippies compared to Taliban. Most palestinians would prefer to have young open minded and western educated leadership, if Israel were to create a proper 2 state solution with Jerusalem as the capital of both states.
18. #12
Andre S. ,   Beirut   (02.08.10)
The study focused on on public opinion in six predominantly Muslim nations (Egypt, Indonesia, Jordan, Lebanon, Pakistan and Turkey) and the Palestinian territories, ***as well as the Muslim population of Nigeria*** and Israel’s Arab population.
19. THAT IS -
Arn. ,   SWEDEN.   (02.08.10)
Palestinians favor bin Laden, Ahmadinejad over Hamas -THE CIVIL POPULATION IN GAZA, ARE WORSE THAN HAMAS. SO - JESAJAH 11 14But they shall fly upon the shoulders of the Philistines toward the west; -NO MORE TEARS FOR THE CIVIL POPULATION IN GAZA. Arn.
20. Palestinian support for al-Qaida
Stephen ,   London UK   (02.08.10)
It is no surprise to Israelis that more than 50% of Palestinians support al-Qaida, after all in a poll in 2006 65% of Palestinians supported al Qaida bombing of USA and Europe. http://www.fafo.no/pub/rapp/797/797.pdf Maybe it would be good if the rest of the world appreciated this.
21. to #17 you wrong hamas just didn't
ghostq   (02.08.10)
like to share cause they like to be the only entity in gaza but there was el-queda shek whom they excuted. it happened 3 month ago, they will turn to any violant entity they can find.
22. to #17 nearly forgot, education
ghostq   (02.08.10)
is a very problematic issue in the palestinian again dependes of what bg and area, all I can say is that in gaza some families send the children to work in tunneles than go to school cause that is the only income hamas don't provide them with nothing and hamas got the meanings but it like to invest in weapons and not in people.
23. polls- who cares, who believes it?
Lisa   (02.08.10)
48% of Indonesiens for Ahmad? gosh- I am so moved- do they even KNOW who he is? Where Iran is? I bet 47% can't even read- nor have ever heard of him... did they hand out candy to the ones who nodded when asked a question? This poll is one of the stupidest and most useless ones in a long time.

27. palestine
imran ,   lahore,paksitan   (08.04.10)
well when u have your children beaten by the soldiers of an occupying force and when you have a child or two dead at their hands .... the boundaries between terrorism and legitimate resistance kind of become blurred.......and any form of resistnace is then apprciable to them....... im shocked the support for al qaeda isnt greater............. im sure had been there some other people instead of the palestinians in their situation the support for a terrorist resistance outfit like alqaeda would have been greater
