Israelis prefer Hillary for president, study finds

T. Belman. Very disturbing. Anyone who cares about Israel and really knows this woman, would reject her out of hand. She is a known antisemite and always has been. In addition she had no compunction to scream at us in support of Obama’s dictates.

Democratic front-runner leads Republican contender Trump by 15 points, even drawing 25% of right-wing voters

TOI

hillary-suha-arafatIsraelis favor Democratic front-runner Hillary Clinton to succeed US President Barack Obama, but narrowly say Israel’s interests would be better served if controversial Republican candidate Donald Trump was to be voted in as the next commander-in-chief, according to a new poll.

The survey, commissioned by the Walla news site and carried out Thursday, found 38 percent of Israelis supporting a Clinton victory in the November 2016 race for president, followed in second place by Trump with 23%.

Runner-up candidates Bernie Sanders, Ted Cruz and Marco Rubio trailed far behind with 7%, 5% and 4%, respectively. Republican contender John Kasich was not among the names polled.

Nearly one-quarter of respondents, or 23%, said they did not know who they preferred.

Pollsters asked 601 people, among them 499 Jews and 102 Arabs.

The study was led by Prof. Camil Fuchs and was conducted as part of the Midgam project led by Dr. Ariel Ayalon.

Arab Israelis lean more heavily toward Clinton than Jewish ones, the poll found. Among Arabs, Clinton leads Trump by 44% to 7%. The lead shrinks, but does not disappear, among Jews, with 37% for Clinton and 26% for Trump.

More than half of respondents, 51%, who said they voted for centrist or left-wing parties preferred Clinton, though her support was still a significant 25% among Israelis who said they voted for the right — despite years of acrimonious relations between Likud’s Benjamin Netanyahu and Democrat Barack Obama.

Not surprisingly, Trump’s support was higher among right-wing Israelis, where he enjoyed 33% support than among left-wing or centrist ones, where support lagged behind at 18%.

These results seemed to contradict another finding of the Thursday poll: Trump and Clinton were all but tied on the question of whether their presidency would be good for Israel.

Asked which of the candidates best aligned with Israel’s interests, Trump won 25% of respondents to Clinton’s 24%. Among Jews, Trump led 28% to 22%; among Arabs, Clinton led 33% to 13%.

Asked to explain the gap of at least 14% of respondents who said they supported Clinton but did not believe she was best for Israel, a gap that grew to 15 points among Jewish respondents, Fuchs told Walla the Clinton brand was strong in Israel due to the continued popularity of Clinton’s husband, former president Bill Clinton.

Then, too, Trump is a relative unknown to Israelis, and seen by many as an unknown variable when it comes to his foreign policies and ties to Israel. Support for the Republican candidate might be higher, Fuchs speculated, if the GOP front-runner was a more mainstream candidate.

  2. Will an Arab be the one to kill or attempt to Trump or just a loony left winger?

    In 1968 Sirhan Sirhan (Palestinian) killed Robert Kennedy when he was running for President. His perceived motivation was that the Kennedy administration was Pro Israel.

    The current atmosphere is starting to feel familiar.

    Sugar Bear , the first thing a woman learns in life is that men are always ” re-defining”.

    Unlike women who can never decide on anything 😛

  20. Bear Klein Said:

    Now he is redefining it that he said it was only for the Primaries. He never previously said this to my knowledge.

    There is a difference. The party supplys most or all of the funds for all general elections. Primaries each candidate must secure their own funding the party is supposed to remain neutral. Trumps is running as a Republican not an independent. As leader of the party once getting the nomination he has the final say as to where and how much funds go into his campaign.

  22. Bear Klein Said:

    Now he is redefining it that he said it was only for the Primaries

    Sugar Bear , the first thing a woman learns in life is that men are always ” re-defining”.

  23. @ watsa46:

    My point was that he has been making a “HUGE” deal of the fact that he is the ONLY candidate that WILL NOT take Donations (other than small ones). He never said this was ONLY for the Primary. If fact it was implied that he would never take big money because he did Not want to be obligated to the Donor Class.

    Now he is redefining it that he said it was only for the Primaries. He never previously said this to my knowledge.

  24. Keli-A Said:

    rump’s lack of in-depth knowledge about any topic and his aversion to learning is disturbing but what he does seem to have are fantastic instincts and great timing….. He seldom lets a good or fortuitous opportunity go to waste.

    Then vote for Clinton !!!!!!!!!! The MOST INTELLIGET woman in the world.

  26. @ Bear Klein:
    Did DT specifically stated that he will run both primaries AND general elections from his own pocket?
    Can U provide me the evidence? I am not doubting.

  27. @ Keli-A:
    BHO brought to the Presidency his charismatic ignorance and his super-divisive ideology.
    DT has much more experience with real life and success, whatever success means. He is NOT an ideologue except in business! What matters at the end is the ability to define the goals and select the right experts. Anyone who refuses to serve the country is UN-patriotic.

  28. “Why did Ted Cruz give Obama executive action on Iran?”

    Indefensible, so I won’t try to defend it.

    Cruz?? He is primarily funded by Goldman Sachs and Bush Mega Donors including Texas oil Co’s.

    This statement is factually untrue.

    I expect Cruz to be like Reagan: lots of good conservative stuff combined with some deep disappointments. Given the nauseating alternatives, and my expectation that his treatment of Israel will be exemplary, I am all in for Cruz. He is the best candidate of my lifetime (and that includes my close personal friend, John Quincy Adams).

  31. @ ArnoldHarris:

    Maybe you are right? We will see but first he must secure the GOP nomination and win the election…. ? Not sure he can pull it all off to test you opinion.

  32. @ bernard ross:

    Trump’s lack of in-depth knowledge about any topic and his aversion to learning is disturbing but what he does seem to have are fantastic instincts and great timing….. He seldom lets a good or fortuitous opportunity go to waste.

    Above all I look at all the disparate forces lined up at any cost against his campaign and his nomination and for me that’s good enough. My instincts are now in play and any candidate that attracts visceral hatred of Move-On and Soros, the left and Obama supporters and those who pushed Romney, McCain and Dole for President have pretty much destroyed America from within…. for these and my own counter-intuitive instincts I will support Trump…. anyone else will lose if Hitlery is allowed to run and I think she will.

  33. One of the Flip Flops with Trump will be that he will take big DONOR MONEY in the general election. He has already said he is considering it. He now says only in the nomination process had he promised to be different by not taking donor money. So he could not be bought like all the other politicians.

    According to his financial statement he $700 million in securities he could sell. Last time the general election cost One billion dollars. Okay he is great at media attention will take most of his stocks and sell them to say raise $500 million? He will take money if their are big donors as he claims who want to give it to him.

  34. Unless his opponents pull some totally unforeseen coup among voters in the big WTA (winner take all) Republican Party primary elections four days from now, then for all practical purposes, Trump will have emerged as the GOP presidential candidate who will face Hillary Clinton in the November 2016 national election.

    I am not at all worried about Trump’s likely foreign policy, in regard to Israel or any other aspect of the USA external affairs. Perhaps some of you have instantly forgotten that he risks the wrath of politically-correct Western civilization by announcing on multiple occasions that he considers Islam itself as a probable driving force of the blistering hatreds that characterize the attitudes of so many Arabs and other Moslems in regard not just to Judaism and Israel, but to much of the non-Islamic world in general and the United States of America in particular.

    I think he takes this matter not just as a personal opinion but also as a certain and specific aspect of the foreign policy that he will pursue, should he be elected president.

    If that is so, and I think that if it were otherwise, he would not repeat it so frequently to the world as a whole on network television.

    And based on that assumption — if he is so elected and has the enormous power of steering the policies of this country — then I do not at all think he would foist some sort of Washington or UNO-based policy on Israel that would attempt to rob Israel of secure borders assuring the Jewish state of control over Eretz-Yisrael from the Mediterranian Sea to the Jordan River.

    He did not build a four billion dollar real estate empire by forgetting the useful and immortal piece of truth, that “the enemy of my enemy is my friend”.

    Shabat Shalom.

  35. “I call it truthful hyperbole,” Trump concludes.

    I call it brazen deceit.

    Trump is the beneficiary of the corporate media desperately wanting to defeat Cruz, who is the only remaining candidate willing to stem the flow of cheap labor into America. Once Cruz has been dispatched, journalists will cast their evil gaze in Trump’s direction and discover (lo and behold, much to their amazement!) that he is a lying sack of crap.

    And counterintuitively, it will all happen just in time to redirect the American public’s rather ephemeral attention away from Hillary’s grotesque criminality and VOILA! four more years of leftist (though crony capitalist) Happy Kitten Playtime !!!

  36. @ Bear Klein:
    you worry so much about Trumps knowledge and yet he has demonstrated in this primary that he knows how to win with NO knowledge or experience in the game. He understands how things work and the worsdsmiths only understand the jingle in their pocket. The jingle in his pocket is nothing new… Trump wine sales have skyrocketed.. Trump knows that even if he loses, he wins…. its called smart, good judgment, experienced,etc. As with anyone else you still have to worry about after he gets in can he do it, is he willing to do it, is he able to do it. We never know until afterwards. I see him the same as the others except I think he will try a different approach to getting things done, which may work.

  37. @ Bear Klein:
    are you asserting that the articles assertions are fact?
    As for his media savvy you are out of the loop… it was obvious for a long while that he knew what he was doing and was applying age old PR tactics…. and they worked.
    I am not sure what your point is, are you complaining that he understands the media and those in it?
    Bear Klein Said:

    So if he says one thing now and does something else later (see his Flip Flops) do not be surprised.

    why would I be surprised, thats what everyone does who runs and wins…. so far. Perhaps he will attempt to do what he says as he is not beholden to donors who are the ones who always reverse the platform after election.

  38. Trump’s Brazen Campaign Strategy Is a Page Out of His 1987 Memoir ‘Art of the Deal’

    He’s demanded Mexico pay for a massive wall for its border with the U.S. He’s retweeted an off-base neo-Nazi claim about blacks and violence. He’s said he would order a total shutdown of Muslims entering to the country.

    Real-estate billionaire and current Republican presidential front-runner Donald Trump has proven himself a pro at miring himself in vile controversy. But excerpts from his own memoir suggest it’s been the plan all along.

    In his 1987 book Art of the Deal, Trump wrote extensively on media manipulation and the power of controversy to drive personal success, per a tweet from Mic’s Sage Boggs, who boldly took on the challenge.

    These passages will ring a bell for anyone following his campaign: “One thing I’ve learned about the press is that they’re always hungry for a good story, and the more sensational the better,” Trump writes in one of the excerpts. “… the point is that if you are a little different, or a little outrageous, or if you do things that are bold or controversial, the press is going to write about you … the result is that the press is always going to write about me.

    In another, Trump writes the coverage is not always positive, “but from a pure business point of view, the benefits of being written about have far outweighed the drawbacks.”

    “The final key to the way I promote is bravado,” Trump writes in another passage. “I play to people’s fantasies. People may not always think big themselves, but they can still get very excited by those who do. That’s why a little hyperbole never hurts. People want to believe that something is the biggest and the greatest and the most spectacular.”

    “I call it truthful hyperbole,” Trump concludes. “It’s an innocent form of exaggeration — and a very effective form of promotion.”

    Art of the Heel: The same tactics Trump wrote about — stirring controversy in the media with bravado, exaggerating while pandering to “people’s fantasies” — he’s brought to life on the campaign trail. When Trump recently called for the U.S. to deny entry to almost every Muslim in the world, the result was a “whirlwind”
    18-hour media tour.

    So if he says one thing now and does something else later (see his Flip Flops) do not be surprised.

  39. @ Bear Klein:
    true, I should remember that you also come daily wailing for annexation but defend the main obstacle to Jews living outside the euro designated ghetto boundaries. For similar unexplained reasons you appear to believe that BB will hear your pleas. I think that the same myopia you employ there also obstructs your reasoning on Trump… on both you ignore facts.

  40. I did not drink the Trump Koolaide that is why I think different than you. That is why one does not care about a foreign policy team.

  41. Bear Klein Said:

    Neither you nor he can name his foreign policy team because he has none.

    its irrelevant to me…. it takes no big team to decide the major issues: peace is impossible because the muslims teach their children to hate Jews…. DUH… once you know and internalize that one fact you can make ALL the relevant necessary decisions with NO team. Israel is full of ezperts, like the US, who know it all and yet with all their knowledge could not match Trumps ubiquitous one line. Dont complicate that wihich is simple… I am sure that someone who has put together tons of major projects can put together a team WHO WILL FOLLOW HIS POLICY AND INSTRUCTIONS. Its only a big deal when you have do nothing wordsmiths who dont know the relation between words and getting things done. Do you want things to continue as they have through the admins of both parties or someone who immediately grasps before even researching that it is the pals hatred fueling the conflict. Good lord, what do you need to smell the coffee, none of them have ever said its their hatred….. once you know that, you know everything you need to know, all subsequent action emanates from that one FACT…. the fact that no one else can say except Trump
    Bear Klein Said:

    he is severely lacking in-spite his beautifully worded statement about Islam and Muslims which showed deep studied and learned insight on the subject (“Islam has a problem with us”). He is right that there are whole lot of Muslims who do not like the USA.

    DUH…. he said the same about Israel… didnt you notice? Bear Klein Said:

    Does he know they want an imposed settlement on Israel without having to give anything up (very very unlikely). Does he know the difference between Abbas and Hamas? When questioned on TV a couple of months ago he did not know who Hamas was and who Hezbollah was. Does he know now? Maybe his advisers know? Oh yeah he has no advisers on foreign policy

    wow, you just dont get it… I believe that you have never watched one of his speeches with everything unedited in context. Otherwise you could never keep repeating your misunderstandings. He is not neutral, I guess you cant figure that out from everything he said which is completely understandable to me. NOT NEUTRAL
    think about it how could a man who knows and stated that the pals teaching their children to hate is the cause of the continuing conflict be nuetral??????? All your details pale next to this… the team works out the details of the executives policies.. they dont decide the policy. Donald is strong enough to demand his policy is carried through unlike the wordsmiths.

    Frankly, I am perplexed by your reasoning process which keeps ignoring facts regarding his neutrality and his stated positions and yet cant remember the quotes I stated which clearly show he cannot be neutral. What the gop say is meaningless… all those pols lie. Arent you tired of the same old BS?

  42. @ bernard ross:
    As I have written before I do not believe Trump is a Nazi or anti-Semitic to answer your question.

    I believe he knows squat about foreign policy including the middle east based on listening to him extensively.

    Neither you nor he can name his foreign policy team because he has none. I heard say we will have great people when repeatedly questioned on TV.

    He will be the GOP nominee most likely (Tuesdays elections will tell us if that is inevitable). That is really sad because a President has the most control over foreign policy and he is severely lacking in-spite his beautifully worded statement about Islam and Muslims which showed deep studied and learned insight on the subject (“Islam has a problem with us”). He is right that there are whole lot of Muslims who do not like the USA.

    His justification for saying he is neutral on Israel and Palestine conflict is so that he can be heard by the Palestinians. Does he know they are Muslim? After his statements does he think they will work with him? Does he know they want an imposed settlement on Israel without having to give anything up (very very unlikely). Does he know the difference between Abbas and Hamas? When questioned on TV a couple of months ago he did not know who Hamas was and who Hezbollah was. Does he know now? Maybe his advisers know? Oh yeah he has no advisers on foreign policy

    He is still better than Hillary which is sort of saying two day old pizza is better than eating vomit. Two lousy choices but one is beyond the pale.

  43. Israelis must be intoxicated with THC and Haaretz! Or they must overwhelmingly love tough/deadly LOVE the communist way.

  44. Bear Klein Said:

    Peace deal to the idiots is code for Palestinian State.

    I suggest not making assumptions and imposing your assumptions for the words of others. I have no problem seeing a difference between a peace deal and a pal state. However, the important thing is that he recognized unlike any israeli or american leader that muslim hatred was the cause of the pal intransigence and that would likely make any deal an impossibility AND he can walk away.
    So my question to you is why do you keep misrepresenting Trump?

    Bear Klein Said:

    they actually get it and have knowledge of the situation. They are not winging it!

    no, they dont get it… if they dont mention muslim… then they dont get it and will forever skirt the real issue. All that knowledge which went nowhere….. in one sentence Trump proves that he is more accurate practically speaking than all the wordsmiths…. BB knows it all… but look at the result.
    Bear Klein Said:

    Funny how some Trumpians need to justify his shortcomings by attacking others. A clear pattern. Can he not stand on his own clearly defined foreign policy and knowledge of the situation?

    In two sentences he clearly defined the problem accurately wrt to Israel better than all the BS wordsmiths.. the muslims bring their children up in hatred and that will likely make a deal impossible, which is OK with him. who else had the mental agility to enunciate this simple yet most important observation. If he can do so well, and be so accurate with so little knowledge.. imagine how accurate he will be when he finds out that which BB has been hiding from Israelis and the world:

    “JEWISH SETTLEMENT IN YS IS LEGAL AND LEGITIMATE”

    imagine what will happen when Trump finds out the legal facts… I am sure he will not be afraid to say it. Knowledge is useless in not applied. Trump has made the most accurate judgment with little knowledge.. he also sees that the same problem with muslim terror in the US exists in Israel… everyone else pretends that it is not the muslims… hence they cannot solve the real problem.
    Bear Klein Said:

    Funny how some Trumpians need to justify his shortcomings by attacking others.

    no, you repeatedly attack trump for things he does not say…. you use 3rd party opponents statements as evidence for your attacks…. perhaps you should rely on first hand research and stop spreading libels. Do you also believe the hitler salute rubbish that the fraud foxman tried to push?

  45. Bear Klein Said:

    Trumps GOP Opponents all are far better for Israel and the USA in foreign policy because they actually get it and have knowledge of the situation. They are not winging it!

    rubbish, all you keep doing is posting the BS of Trumps opponents. You and they distort and re market his position. All of these others with so called “knowledge of the situation” cannot mention that islam and muslims are at the root of the problem as did Trump. If Islam and muslims are not mentioned wrt to Israels wars then that so called “knowledge” is meaningless and keeps from dealing with the real problem…. muslim jew hatred.
    Trump clearly stated that
    -one side bring their children up in hatred which likely will make it impossible to reach a deal
    -he would like to make a peace deal because successful businessmen like to make successful deals BUT he recognizes that the likelihood is slim and stated that he has no problem walking away from that deal.

    You keep posting 3rd party opinions from his opponents which is absolute worthless as a submission.. cite facts in context or else you just become someone elses PC consensus parrot. right now the PC parrot is the GOP establishment. This big blurb you copied and pasted is meaningless and irrelevant…. opinions from his opponents…. all from a party that supposedly declared Jerusalem as the undivided capital but everyone of their presidents dont move the embassy… plus the bush letter was worthless in binding the US. there is not a single thing I would take to the bank from the GOP bought candidates. At least Trump answers to no donors and doesnt care if he loses.

  46. At Thursday night’s CNN presidential primary debate, all three of Donald Trump’s Republican rivals slammed his position on Israel and Palestine, saying that peace is impossible, and shamed him for wanting to try to make “probably the toughest” deal of all time: peace between Israel and Palestine.

    “Donald said he wants to be neutral between Israel and the Palestinians. As president, I will not be neutral,” said Sen. Ted Cruz. “I don’t think we need a commander-in-chief who is neutral between the Palestinian terrorists and one of our strongest allies in the world, the nation of Israel.”

    Trump responds that “no one is more pro-Israel” than him, (he once led the Israeli Day Parade down 5th Avenue in Manhattan and he has two Jewish granchildren) but he needs to remain relatively neutral in order to make a deal.

    “If we’re going to ever negotiate a peace settlement,” Trump said. “Which every Israeli wants… I would like to at least have the other side think I’m somewhat neutral to them, so that we can maybe get a deal done. Maybe we can get a deal. I think it’s probably the toughest negotiation of all time. But maybe we can get a deal done.”

    Ted Cruz fires back, saying that Donald Trump’s position that peace is possible if the Palestinians can be brought to the table is the same position held by Hillary Clinton and “the same moral relativism that Barack Obama has.”

    Sen. Marco Rubio folows up, saying that the Palestinian authority is not a legitimate government that can be negotiated with, it is in league with Hamas. “Maybe that’s not your intent” Rubio said to Trump. “But here’s why [yours] is an anti-Israeli policy. There is no peace deal possible with the Palestinians at this moment. there just isn’t. because there’s no one to negotiate with… So maybe in 30 years the conditions [for a peace deal in Palestine] will exist,” Rubio said. “But they do not exist now.”

    John Kasich takes an additonal dig at Trump, saying that even a border wall can’t protect Israel from Palestinian terrorists. “There was just an article where Israelis were learning to train underground in combat because Hamas is digging tunnels trying to come in under Israel[‘s walls]. They’re coming at them from above, trying to come at them under the ground. I’ll tell you this — I don’t believe there is any long-term permanent peace solution. And I think pursuing that is a wrong thing to do.”

    http://www.realclearpolitics.com/video/2016/03/10/rubio_cruz_and_kasich_attack_trump_for_wanting_to_try_to_make_peace_in_palestine.html

    Trumps GOP Opponents all are far better for Israel and the USA in foreign policy because they actually get it and have knowledge of the situation. They are not winging it! Trump the least knowledgeable on Foreign Policy does not have a foreign policy team after around nine months of running for President.

  47. Peace deal to the idiots is code for Palestinian State.

    Funny how some Trumpians need to justify his shortcomings by attacking others. A clear pattern. Can he not stand on his own clearly defined foreign policy and knowledge of the situation?

  48. Bear Klein Said:

    Trump said very early in his Presidency he would try hard to create a Palestinian State.

    you really should stop telling fibs about what Trump said and wants. Perhaps you dont actually listen to or read his comments in context and rely on 3rd parties. I have corrected you on the facts of this canard… which rivals the hitler salute canard… many times but you insist on repeating this fakery anyway.
    Trump did not mention a pal state.. he talked about that he would like to broker the “peace” deal because it has been a deal that no one can make. However, he immediatly qualified by saying that perhaps it is impossible, something no other pres has said, and the HE HAS NO PROBLEM WALKING AWAY if the sides cant agree. Unlike every other pres who wanted to make a deal he starts out by saying that he will walk away if the sides dont want it.
    Bear Klein Said:

    He does not know enough to realize that this a formula for war and not peace.

    see, when you start out with false facts you build more upon it…
    However, he appears to know more, while knowing little, than your PM and the rest of Israeli politicians when he said these things:
    “lets ban muslim immigration until we can figure it out” and “muslims hate the west”. Your Pm and leadership appear to not know that muslims are a problem
    Bear Klein Said:

    I am not for Hillary but on this score he sounds like here comes another American who thinks he is smarter than the last and somehow wil make peace were no one else has.

    see, you double down on your first false fact and build more false facts. He actually said exactly the opposite: he is willing to walk away from a deal if the sides are not interested.

    Bear Klein Said:

    Combine and over sized ego with a lack of knowledge you have a potential huge problem (e.g Obama).

    he shows greater knowledge, or willingness to state it, than your leadership. You would think that a jewish leadership plagued by muslims for centuries would know better. Trump say one or two sentences and condenses more useful knowledge than all the false bloviating of Israeli leadership
    “lets ban muslim immigration until we figure it out”
    so little knowledge and yet in one sentence the identification of the major problem and its obvious solution.

    Bear Klein Said:

    Funny his instincts tell him most Muslims do like Americans. What makes him think that they are capable of actually accepting Jews in the middle east and accepting Israel as a peace partner.

    Interestingly, if you are right in what he thinks of muslims, it did not prevent him from saying:
    “lets ban muslim immigration until we can figure it out”
    what better solution than that? If only someone in Israel had as little knowledge as Trump and could say the same thing…. but in Israel you have leadership that cannot even say these words:

    “JEWISH SETTLEMENT IN YS IS LEGAL AND LEGITIMATE”

    I keep repeating it becuase perhaps the absurdity of a Jewish PM in a Jewish homeland refusing to say those words would finally wake you up from your slumber whereby everyday youe come here speaking of annexation sovereignty etc and yet you defend the one person in the current gov that is the prime obstacle to that goal.
    It begins with those simple words, if those words were uttered daily by BB in his last seven years we would not now be hearing the worlds acceptance of Jewish settlement being illegal and illegitimate.
    Israel has been saying the wrong words and therefore the unrebutted libels have morphed into truth……. Israel’s daily plague results from not saying those words… start with the words. I am sure that when Trump finds out what BB already knows, unlike BB he will be able to say the words correctly…… unlike israel and Morgana
