US involvement in Israeli-Palestinian peace: Poll-ish mentality

Organizations always seem to get the poll results that support their opinions. J-Street, which supports unconditional legitimization of the Hamas organization and a wider role for the US in Israeli-Palestinian peace negotiations, found in a recent poll that 69% of American Jews support a strong role for the United States in Israeli-Palestinian peace  even if it means publicly disagreeing with or exerting pressure on both Arabs and Israelis and the same percentage support the US working with a Fatah-Hamas unity government, like the one that ended in a Hamas coup in 2007.

 

An ADL poll found however  that:

 

Asked about the US role in the peace process, a small plurality (47%) believe the parties need to solve their own problems with the US playing the role of facilitator; versus 44% who believe peace depends on continuing US leadership and involvemen

 

74% believe that Hamas is not interested in peace, while 52% believe Palestinian Authority Chairman Mahmoud Abbas i

Very strange that J-Street and ADL get such different results, isn't it?
