Is your version of democracy in the ME the elections in 2006 when Hamas won then set about murdering all the opposition leaders and members and cancelling all further elections. Considering that most people that speak out against Hamas are murdered, their polling is predictably favourable in spite of using most of the aid money meant for the people to build up an arsenal of weapons and tunnels to launch unsuccessful wars against Israel.
Peace requires compromise, which Hamas has made it clear that it has no intention of doing.
