Some Hamas members in West Bank fret over elections
Hamas leaders in the Gaza Strip and West Bank express contrasting positions about participating in the Palestinian elections in light of the hard security conditions Hamas members are subjected to in the West Bank.
Not everyone in Hamas is comfortable with the prospect of Palestinian elections, at least not under current conditions in the West Bank.
Hamas recently agreed to several conditions outlined by the Palestinian Authority (PA) so that presidential and legislative elections can be held in the Gaza Strip, Jerusalem and the West Bank. Hamas has laid out conditions of its own, and there's no guarantee that PA President Mahmoud Abbas or his Fatah party will agree to the stipulations.
