Mohammed Mahmoud Nasrallah, money exchanger, 59; has nine children

We are worried about economic sanctions on a Hamas-led government. We will face hunger. Our children will suffer. Hopefully the European Union will continue to give economic support to our people. We have been suffering tremendously since the intifada. Both the health and education sectors are in bad shape. We hope Israel and the world will give Hamas a chance. They should recognize it and negotiate with it. Voters didn’t like Fatah because it stole so much money -- Fatah stole US$750 million while it was in power. This money should have gone to the people. At least we trust Hamas won’t do the same.
