No less than 58% of the Israeli public supports canceling the resident status and its accompanying rights for Arab residents of eastern Jerusalem, according to a new poll released Tuesday.
The poll, conducted by the Midgam Institute under Dr. Mina Tzemach’s supervision, comes after Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu suggesting stripping residency from Jerusalem Arabs this week and announced he maytake a tour of the area to consider the move.
Only 35% of the public oppose canceling the residency rights extended to Arab residents of Israel’s capital, according to the poll which was conducted for the Knesset Channel.
Another question in the poll yielded troubling results regarding the status ofJerusalem as Israel’s undivided capital.
According to it, a 56% majority said they supporting transferring Arab majority neighborhoods of the capital to the control of the Palestinian Authority (PA), while 34% opposed.
The results are troubling, and highlight concerns among many, includinggovernmental ministers, that Netanyahu’s move to strip residency is part of aplan to divide Jerusalem, the 3,000-year-old capital of the Jewish people.
In effect the PA already is being allowed to provide water, electricity and telephone service to many Arab majority neighborhoods in the capital where Jews are forbidden from entering by the government, in what has been termed ade facto division of the capital.
The poll also found that 74% of the public reasons that a bi-national state of Israel that would incorporate Judea and Samaria and grant citizenship to its Arab residents would not be able to exist in a democratic manner, indicating fears that a large Arab population would undermine the Jewish state.
Only 17% said that annexing Judea and Samaria and giving its Arab residents citizenship would not interfere with Israel’s existence as a democratic state.
Aside from the “one state solution” of annexing Judea and Samaria and making its Arab residents citizens, various other alternatives have been presented, including the suggestion to create a “Palestine” in Jordan.
That call was given even more credence in June, when Palestinian Authority (PA) Chairman Mahmoud Abbas called Jordanian and Palestinian Arabs “one people living in two states.”
The latest is the net result of a systematic process based on a deadly anti-Jewish plan developed by the MAPAM-MAPAI renegade cadres since before the state was in appearance only, declared.
The Nazi like acts to strip of Jewish identification from Jews arriving from Yemen way back then, should have tipped the hand… Many other such ghastly acts followed since.
Ever since, the same organized campaign proceeded apace not only on incoming Jews but in other fields as well.
Education, military orientation, self elected “justice”, and more.
Lets mention for example the “selectziah” committees controlling access to kibbutzim or Jews willing to join.
Review at your pace the allocations of land and privileges to that element, etc.
Dayan and his extended family including all of those “leading” since Ben Gurion, set the final marker indicator by giving the Islamic Clergy the keys to Temple Mount and corresponding sole rights up there. Nothing has been done since then to stop wanton destruction by the Rabin-Peres and others Islamic beasts of all Jewish Heritage items in Har Habait.
Oslo was and remains just a section of the plan incorporating Arafat as proxy for the unJews to murder the Jewish people and destroy our Heritage.
Is Netanyahu any different?
