What Israelis Think

From the latest Peace Index

11.    When you think of the Palestinians today, do you think of them more
as enemies or more as neighbors?
    Jews    /    Arabs
1.    Much more as enemies    40.7    /    4.1
2.    A little more as enemies    15.9    /
3.    Not as enemies and not as neighbors    14.1    /    12.0
4.    A little more as neighbors    17.2    /    14.8
5.    Much more as neighbors    7.7    /    64.8
6.    Don't know / Refuse    4.4    /    4.2

12.    In your opinion, what are the chances that the official talks taking
place between Israel and the Palestinians in recent months, which are headed
by Minister Tzipi Livni and are being conducted under U.S. auspices, will
eventually lead to a significant agreement between the sides?
    Jews    /    Arabs
1.    Very high chances    0.6    /    5.3
2.    High chances    13.6    /    14.7
3.    Low chances    44.4    /    39.7
4.    Very low chances    36.8    /    24.7
5.    Don't know / Refuse    4.6    /    15.6


14.    In your opinion, in return for a permanent peace agreement, should or
should not Israel agree to the return of a limited number of Palestinian
refugees to Israel?
    Jews    /    Arabs
1.    I'm sure it should agree    3.8    /    53.0
2.    I think it should    11.3    /    26.7
3.    I think it should not    20.2    /    1.5
4.    I'm sure it should not    61.2    /    15.0
5.    Don't know / Refuse    3.4    /    3.9

15.    In return for a permanent peace agreement, would you support or
oppose Israel accepting partial responsibility for the suffering that was
caused to the Palestinians, for example, for creating the refugee problem?
    Jews    /    Arabs
1.    I'm sure I would not agree    53.2    /    7.8
2.    I think I would not agree    17.0    /    1.4
3.    I think I would agree    17.7    /    23.8
4.    I'm sure I would agree    6.2    /    57.4
5.    Don't know / Refuse    5.8    /    9.7
