Almost half of all Israeli Jews are in favor of transferring or expelling the state’s Arab population, a major U.S. survey of Israeli public opinion has found.
That staggering statistic comes from the Pew Research Center’s report on Israel’s religiously divided society, released on March 8.
The Israelis polled were not responding to an Israeli government policy proposal, but rather the broad concept of transfer and expulsion. Forty-eight percent of Israeli Jews strongly agree or agree with the idea while 46% strongly disagree or disagree.
“[Jewish] Israelis are feeling, at the time we took this survey at least, quite divided about the long-term prospects for living together with the non-Jewish population,” said Alan Cooperman, director of religion research at Pew. According to the report, Jews constitute about 81% of the country’s population; non-Jews, the vast majority Arabs, constitute 19%. There are 8.4 million people living in Israel total.

Okay, then you are addressing settlements with 109% Jewish occupancy.
That makes sense.
The neo-con-artists in the gop scream bloody murder about building a wall along the Mexican border, and even thinking about deporting illegal aliens, but they support Israel’s wall, and won’t utter a peep about how 48 percent of Israelis want to deport Arabs. Do you think that the neo-con-artists over here will launch a multimillion dollar campaign to smear those 48 percent of Israelis?
“However, this same publication reports that Jews are a race.”
Yes, but does it say that “Arabs are a race”? ;-)
Roughly half of Israeli Jews were expelled from arab/muslim countries during the middle of the 20th century due to concerted pogroms sponsored by the authorities in those countries.
Hence, the anger.
I have a lot of Christian arab friends. They are very nice and good Israelis.
There is no such thing as the “West Bank.”
It’s a made up name for Western journalist Jordon created when it invaded in 1950 and seized the land (temporarily).
Israel needs to finally admit that its long-standing policy trying to be kindly, tolerant, and Amazingly forgiving towards these Satanic basturds and even repeatedly trying to make peace with them has been a long-standing failure, and send them back to their own Muslim countries ASAP. (And THAT’s far better than they deserve!)
Arabs and or Muslims are not a race. The US threw the Tories out after the Revolutionary War, so what!
Judea and Samaria..
He’s an ass, but you don’t have to be one..
They are armed and trained; they will do what they must.
My questions was based on the idea they simply lived among the Arabs, like the Arabs do in Israel.
I had forgotten about the settlements.
In the settlement setting, your answer is a given. I agree with you.
If you'd like to be on or off, please FR mail me.

I don’t blame the Israelis! Arabs have put them in a constant state of survival mode. Arab Muslims suck.
