Judeofascists show their true colors.... Poll: Palestinian state a threat to Israel By Hanoch Smith November, 30 2001 JERUSALEM (November 30) - Even with Prime Minister Ariel Sharon saying yesterday he would accept a Palestinian state under certain conditions, 47 percent of Israelis oppose the establishment of such a state, according to a Smith Institute poll conducted this week. The poll was commissioned by Independent Media Review and Analysis and the Zionist Organization of America, and sampled 502 adult Israelis (including Israeli Arabs) on Sunday and Monday. The margin of error was 4.5 percentage points. Some 47% of the sample questioned (45% of the Jewish respondents) said they oppose the establishment of a Palestinian state even within the framework of a peace agreement that the Palestinians would honor. Thirty-four percent (31% of Jews) support the establishment of a Palestinian state only within the framework of a peace agreement that the Palestinians would honor, while 14% (13% of Jews) support the establishment of a Palestinian state even if it is not certain that the Palestinians would honor the agreement. Six percent had no opinion. Speaking to the UN General Assembly earlier this month in New York, Foreign Minister Shimon Peres said that the majority of Israelis backs the establishment of an independent Palestinian state. To the question: "In your opinion, regardless of the size or strength of a Palestinian state, if one is established will it constitute a threat to the State of Israel?" 65% (68% of Jews) of those interviewed said they feel that it would constitute a threat to Israel, 26% (29% of Jews) said that it would not constitute a threat, and 6% had no opinion. This view was further clarified in the question, "To what extent would the establishment of a Palestinian state reduce or add to the ability of all the Arab states to threaten Israel?" In all, 60% (64% of Jews) feel that the threat would be increased, 25% (24% of Jews) feel that the threat would not be changed at all, only 11% (9% of Jews) said that it would be decreased, and 4% (3%) expressed no opinion. Hence, the Arab world, with a Palestinian state added, is seen as an increasing threat. [snip] jpost.com
