And There's A New Poll and More Opinion Dichotomy

Thanks to Dr. Aaron Lerner of IMRA we now know (in English) that


61% Israelis oppose expected deal with Palestinians



and once again, the dichotomy of Israeli opinion - we want peace and will do all to engage in its making but heck, we don't want a bad peace and don't believe the Arabs want peace - is apparent.

The survey was commissioned by The Orly & Guy Morning Program of Channel 10 TV and conducted by telephone on 22 July.


Results:


Are you for or against Israel entering negotiations with the Palestinians in the wake of the visit of US Secretary of State John Kerry to the region?


Total:

For 59% 
Against 31% 
Other replies 10%
Jews: For 49% Against 41% Other 10%
In principle, are you for or against signing a full peace agreement with the Palestinians on the basis of the 1967 borders, including the exchange of territory and release of prisoners?


Total: 

For 29% 
Against 57% 
Other replies 14%
Jews: For 22% Against 62% Other 16%

[Note: It is particularly interesting that the results are almost the same
when give next to no details of the "deal" and when provide details]
