What could go wrong?
Most Israelis believe that, regardless of the outcome of 'Palestinian' efforts to unilaterally declare a 'state' at the UN in September, there is going to be another violent intifada here. Of those surveyed, 52 percent feared the outbreak of a violent Palestinian struggle in the event of a unilateral declaration of state, while 40 percent of people believed that an Intifada would not break out.What could go wrong?
The poll also found that 54% of the public believe an Intifada will break out even if the United Nations does not recognize the proposed Palestinian state, whereas 38% of respondents believed the opposite to be true.
The survey, conducted by Dahaf Director Dr. Mina Tzemach, also guaged the Israeli public's response to the Palestinian unity deal. Only 30% of respondents said they think Israel should negotiate with a Palestinian unity government including Hamas. Twenty-nine percent of the public said Israel should negotiate with the Palestinians, but not if Hamas is part of the government.
In addition, 29% of respondents believe that Israel should not take part in any diplomatic relations with the Palestinians.
