Palestinian Omar Abdel Razeq head of the Hamas delegation for talks with Fatah, meets Mohammed Ibrahim the chairman of an Egyptian security delegation negotiating Palestinian faction talks in the West Bank city of Ramallah on 18 August 2009. Support among Palestinians for president Mahmud Abbas and his secular Fatah party is greater than that for his Islamist Hamas rivals, according to the results of a poll released on August 17. Fatah, which controls the Palestinian Authority, exercised undivided power among Palestinians before it lost heavily to Hamas in a 2006 parliamentary election. Photo by Issam Rimawi
