Poll Supports Jewish Revenants!!!

Poll: 56% of Israelis back settlement construction

Nearly six of every 10 Israelis think Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu should resist U.S. demands to completely freeze construction in Jewish West Bank settlements, according to a new poll released Friday.

The poll by the Maagar Mohot Polling Institute comes just ahead of Netanyahu's major policy speech on Sunday that is expected to address a growing divide with Washington.

...Fifty-six percent of those surveyed said Netanyahu should not consent to the American demand to halt all settlement construction, as opposed to 37 percent who said he should. Fifty percent said failure to comply would not provoke a crisis with the U.S., while 32 percent said they thought the settlement freeze was a make or break issue for Washington.

Maagar Mohot also found in a separate poll that two-thirds of Israelis have little appetite for dismantling West Bank settlements. Thirty-six percent oppose any evacuation as part of a final peace deal and 30 percent said only a small number should be dismantled.


Aw, we always knew that. But that Haaretz would print it.

Probably think it damages Netanyahu.

Oh, and thanks to Obama for aiding us in closing ranks.

Shalom haver

Thanks for your blog. I watched the interview you had in Hardtalk and I was amazed cause you resist very well the attacks of the interviewer. I hope you can have a good life in Eretz Israel. I disagree about the settlements topic but, anyway, I hope someday we can arrive to a peace process in which Israel doesn´t have to sacrifice more lifes.
