Did Palestinians Back the Nazis in World War II?'
Daily Alert, May 19, 2022.
... from the moment it became evident that the Germans may pass through Egypt and reach Palestine in spring 1942, Palestinian Arabs switched sides. About 78% of the Arab volunteers deserted the British army, often stealing weapons for the purpose of helping the Germans fight the Jews when the time came. Additionally, a survey in 1941 showed that 88% of Palestinian Arabs supported Nazi Germany, while only 9% backed the British Mandate

The Arabs of Israel.
Are they a "persecuted minority?"
In a recent poll, 70% of Israel's Arabs declared that they identified with and felt loyalty to the Palestinians, and not to the state of Israel. Significantly, however, the same percentage (70%) declared that they would much prefer to live in Israel than in any other country in the area.

- PALESTINIAN EDUCATION.
Senate Hearing 108-290]
[From the U.S. Government Publishing Office]
...one film clip broadcast daily on Palestinian Authority TV (PATV) called the "Farewell Letter,'' portrays the martyrdom as blissful and tranquil. A young boy leaves a farewell letter explaining his choice to achieve shahada. The words 'How sweet is shahada when I embrace you, oh my land!' are sung as the child actor falls dead on the ground.
Messages like this on official PATV, played over and over, have had an effect. In some Palestinian polls as many as 80 percent of
Palestinian children desire death as martyrs. Children play death games, in which they take turns playing the prize role--that of the
martyr. And in an interview last year, one 11-year old girl, stated that ". . . death by Shahada is very good. Every Palestinian child aged, say 12, says 'Oh Lord, I would like to become a Shahid.' ''
These chilling examples demonstrate how deeply these impulses have seeped into the culture and into the hearts and minds of Palestinian children; and it is shameful and reproachful that these lessons come from the public officials whose aim should be to protect children--not send them to their graves.

Poll Shows Most Palestinians Favor Violence Over Talks.
By Ethan Bronner, The New York Times.
Mar 19, 2008 — RAMALLAH, West Bank — A new poll shows that an overwhelming majority of Palestinians support the attack this month on a Jewish seminary in Jerusalem that killed eight young men, most of them teenagers, an indication of the alarming level of Israeli-Palestinian tension in recent weeks.
The survey also shows unprecedented support for the shooting of rockets on Israeli towns from the Gaza Strip and for the end of the peace negotiations between Palestinian and Israeli leaders.
The pollster, Khalil Shikaki, said he was shocked because the survey, taken last week, showed greater support for violence than any other he had conducted over the past 15 years in the Palestinian areas. Never before, he said, had a majority favored an end to negotiations or the shooting of rockets at Israel.

If Israel is so terrible, why do so many Arabs prefer to live under Israeli rule?
Jane's Sinkinson, JNS, Dec 28, 2021.
— The privileged American and European elites who purport to speak for the “Palestinian people” rarely understand their reality...
This survey is hardly an outlier, and other Arabs feel similarly. A poll undertaken by the Konrad Adenauer Stiftung at Tel Aviv University’s Dayan Center in 2017 found that 60 percent of Arabs in Israel had a favorable attitude towards the State of Israel.
“The bottom line is there is more identification with Israel than with a possible Palestinian state,” Michael Borchard, Israel director of the Konrad Adenauer Stiftung said, in an interview with The Jerusalem Post. “They want to be recognized in their specific identity but have no problem to be related in a way to Israel.”
A 2019 poll by progressive researchers Dahlia Scheindlin and David Reis tells a similar story. It revealed that while 14 percent of Arab Israelis identify as “Palestinian,” 19 percent identify as “Palestinian Israeli” and 46 percent choose “Arab Israeli.” That’s 65 percent who identify as some form of Israeli. Only 22 percent identify as purely “Arab.”
In 2020, Israeli social statistician Camil Fuchs found that only 15 percent of Palestinians picked “Arab” as their identity, and only seven percent opted for “Palestinian.” On the other hand, 23 percent chose “Israeli,” and 51 percent went with “Arab Israeli.” That’s 74 percent choosing some form of Israeli identity...

If Israel is as terrible as its enemies claim, why do so many Palestinians prefer to live under Israeli rule?
F.L.A.M.E., Dec 28, 2021.
According to a 2021 survey undertaken by the Palestinian Shfa publication, 93% of Palestinian Arabs in Jerusalem—all non-Israeli citizens—prefer to remain under Israeli rule and would not give up their Israeli identity cards. Astonishingly for those who witness the daily media and NGO barrage claiming Arab Palestinian misery under Israel's "occupation," only 84 respondents out of 1,200 surveyed said they would prefer to live under the Palestinian Authority. However, even of those 84, 79 said they also would not give up their Israeli identity cards.

Radicalization of Arab-Israelis is a threat to Israel - opinion.
David M. Weinberg, Jerusalem Post, Feb 10, 2022.
Two new studies warn of radicalization among Arab-Israelis and urge robust government action.
In recent years, I have been quite optimistic about the forward-looking integration of Arab-Israelis in broader Israeli society. So many positive polls and helpful government initiatives suggested that better Arab-Jewish relations were on the upswing.
But in the wake of May’s violent Arab riots and two just-published, in-depth and ill-boding studies, there is ample reason to worry that the progress could prove ephemeral. It is up to Israel to act swiftly against Arab-Israeli radicals so that Arab-Israeli moderates (the majority, I believe) can win the day.
Ostensibly, Arab-Israelis have gradually but inexorably moved to acceptance and even preference of life in the Jewish State of Israel. Recent polls suggest that 71% of Arab-Israelis feel that Israel is a good place to live; 68% prefer to live in Israel than in other countries; and 60% even says they feel Israel to be a home and a homeland. Ninety-three percent of Arab residents in eastern Jerusalem prefer to live under Israeli governance than that of the Palestinian Authority!

Where Are the Palestinian Concessions for Peace?
Bassam Tawil, Gatestobe Institute, September 28, 2023.
... As the results of the PCPSR poll showed, the Palestinian public is not impressed with the proposed concessions.
If the Palestinian Authority is currently unable or unwilling to prevent terror groups from attacking Israelis, it is truly delusional to think that it would be more diligent in controlling security in any new areas it received from Israel. Abbas has not been willing to send his security officers to arrest or kill the terrorists based in the cities of Jenin and Nablus. He knows that if he does, his people will condemn him as a "traitor" and "collaborator" with Israel, and quickly dispatch him to "drink tea up there" with the Egypt's murdered President Anwar Sadat, who was assassinated for brokering his country's 1979 peace deal with Israel. Moreover, Abbas will not go against the terrorists as long as they do not physically go against him.
Most of all, the idea of transferring more land to the Palestinians is terrible because sends a message to the Palestinian Authority that, after it failed to combat terrorism in land under its control, it will be rewarded with even more land...
The Palestinian Authority (PA), through its "Pay-for-Slay" program, proudly rewards terrorists who murder or wound Jews. In just one year, "Ramallah paid out around NIS 600 million ($187 million) in salaries for Palestinians imprisoned, jailed, or killed by Israel in 2020, according to a senior Palestine Liberation Organization official." In 2018, PA President Mahmoud Abbas said: "We will neither reduce nor withhold the allowances of the families of martyrs, prisoners, and released prisoners... if we had one single penny left, we would spend it on the families of the martyrs and the prisoners."
As the poll illustrates, support for anti-Israel terrorism among the Palestinians has risen from 53% (three months ago) to 58% today...

Palestinian Support for Hamas and War Remains High: Survey.
Public • By Pesach Benson • 21 March, 2024.
Jerusalem, 21 March, 2024 (TPS) -- A survey of Palestinians living in Gaza and the Palestinian Authority released on Wednesday found popular support for Hamas remains high despite the war.
The poll, conducted by the Ramallah-based Palestinian Center for Policy and and Survey Research found that 71% of Palestinians surveyed viewed Hamas’s October 7 attack on Israel as correct. This perception was identical between Palestinians living in the PA and Gaza.
The survey also found that Palestinian satisfaction with Hamas remains stable at 70% (75% in the PA and 62% in Gaza) and with Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar at 61% (68% in the PA and 52% in Gaza). Satisfaction with Fatah was much lower at 27% (24% in the PA and 32% in Gaza) and with Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas at 14% (8% in the PA and 22% in Gaza).
Compared to a December survey, support for Hamas rose in Gaza by 10% but dropped 10% in the Palestinian Authority

Most Palestinians Support October 7 Attack, Dissatisfied With Abbas and Fatah.
June 14, 2024.
Latest Developments.
More than two-thirds of Palestinians support Hamas’s decision to launch its killing spree in southern Israel on October 7, according to a Palestinian poll released on June 12. The poll, published by the Ramallah-based non-profit Palestinian Center for Policy and Survey Research, also indicates that Palestinian Authority (PA) President Mahmoud Abbas and his Fatah faction remain deeply unpopular. On the issue of food security, 64 percent of Palestinians in Gaza responded that they have enough food for one or two days. Some of the aid donated to the Palestinians is being sold in Gaza on the black market.
Expert Analysis.
“Palestinians in both the West Bank and Gaza are deeply radicalized to hate Israel and Jews. Deradicalization of Palestinian society — in the government, schools, mosques, and media — needs to go to the top of ‘day after’ policy discussions.” — Richard Goldberg, FDD Senior Advisor
“By intensifying hostility towards Israel and increasingly recognizing a Palestinian state that has yet to develop, the international community is rewarding Hamas for massacring Jews. Palestinians are understanding the message loud and clear: violence works.” — David May, FDD Research Manager and Senior Research Analyst
Widespread Support for Hamas’s October 7 Attack.
Only nine percent of Palestinians think that Hamas has committed war crimes since October 7, while 90 percent of Palestinians have not seen videos showing Hamas’s treatment of Israeli civilians. Additionally, increased international political attacks on Israel and growing support for Palestinian statehood have reinforced the Palestinians’ positive view of the October 7 atrocities, with 82 percent of Palestinians believing that the attack has “revived international attention to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict and that it could lead to increased recognition of Palestinian statehood.”
Plurality of Palestinians Support Hamas
Satisfaction with Hamas’s performance since October 7 stands at 75 percent, compared to 24 percent for its rival, Fatah. Hamas leader in Gaza Yahya Sinwar enjoys a 65 percent satisfaction rating compared to Abbas’s 10 percent. Nearly 90 percent of Palestinians want Abbas to resign.
The poll also found that 40 percent of Palestinians support Hamas, compared to only 20 percent for Fatah. The poll found that 69 percent view the PA as a burden, 65 percent oppose a two-state solution, and 63 percent support armed intifada.
If a three-way election occurred between Marwan Barghouti, who is serving multiple life sentences for his role in the murder of Jews during the Second Intifada, Hamas political leader Ismail Haniyeh, and Abbas, 42 percent would support Barghouti, 27 percent would support Haniyeh, and five percent would support Abbas. In a contest between Haniyeh and Abbas, Haniyeh would prevail with 43 percent to Abbas’s 11 percent.

Senate Hearing 108-290]
[From the U.S. Government Publishing Office]
...one film clip broadcast daily on Palestinian Authority TV (PATV) called the "Farewell Letter,'' portrays the martyrdom as blissful and tranquil. A young boy leaves a farewell letter explaining his choice to achieve shahada. The words 'How sweet is shahada when I embrace you, oh my land!' are sung as the child actor falls dead on the ground.
Messages like this on official PATV, played over and over, have had an effect. In some Palestinian polls as many as 80 percent of
Palestinian children desire death as martyrs. Children play death games, in which they take turns playing the prize role--that of the
martyr. And in an interview last year, one 11-year old girl, stated that ". . . death by Shahada is very good. Every Palestinian child aged, say 12, says 'Oh Lord, I would like to become a Shahid.' ''
These chilling examples demonstrate how deeply these impulses have seeped into the culture and into the hearts and minds of Palestinian children; and it is shameful and reproachful that these lessons come from the public officials whose aim should be to protect children--not send them to their graves.

The survey also shows unprecedented support for the shooting of rockets on Israeli towns from the Gaza Strip and for the end of the peace negotiations between Palestinian and Israeli leaders.
The pollster, Khalil Shikaki, said he was shocked because the survey, taken last week, showed greater support for violence than any other he had conducted over the past 15 years in the Palestinian areas. Never before, he said, had a majority favored an end to negotiations or the shooting of rockets at Israel.

If Israel is so terrible, why do so many Arabs prefer to live under Israeli rule?
Jane's Sinkinson, JNS, Dec 28, 2021.
— The privileged American and European elites who purport to speak for the “Palestinian people” rarely understand their reality...
This survey is hardly an outlier, and other Arabs feel similarly. A poll undertaken by the Konrad Adenauer Stiftung at Tel Aviv University’s Dayan Center in 2017 found that 60 percent of Arabs in Israel had a favorable attitude towards the State of Israel.
“The bottom line is there is more identification with Israel than with a possible Palestinian state,” Michael Borchard, Israel director of the Konrad Adenauer Stiftung said, in an interview with The Jerusalem Post. “They want to be recognized in their specific identity but have no problem to be related in a way to Israel.”
A 2019 poll by progressive researchers Dahlia Scheindlin and David Reis tells a similar story. It revealed that while 14 percent of Arab Israelis identify as “Palestinian,” 19 percent identify as “Palestinian Israeli” and 46 percent choose “Arab Israeli.” That’s 65 percent who identify as some form of Israeli. Only 22 percent identify as purely “Arab.”
In 2020, Israeli social statistician Camil Fuchs found that only 15 percent of Palestinians picked “Arab” as their identity, and only seven percent opted for “Palestinian.” On the other hand, 23 percent chose “Israeli,” and 51 percent went with “Arab Israeli.” That’s 74 percent choosing some form of Israeli identity...

If Israel is as terrible as its enemies claim, why do so many Palestinians prefer to live under Israeli rule?
F.L.A.M.E., Dec 28, 2021.
According to a 2021 survey undertaken by the Palestinian Shfa publication, 93% of Palestinian Arabs in Jerusalem—all non-Israeli citizens—prefer to remain under Israeli rule and would not give up their Israeli identity cards. Astonishingly for those who witness the daily media and NGO barrage claiming Arab Palestinian misery under Israel's "occupation," only 84 respondents out of 1,200 surveyed said they would prefer to live under the Palestinian Authority. However, even of those 84, 79 said they also would not give up their Israeli identity cards.
Nevertheless, this survey is hardly an outlier, and other Arabs feel similarly. A poll undertaken by the Konrad Adenauer Stiftung at Tel Aviv University's Dayan Center in 2017, found that 60% of Arabs in Israel had a favorable attitude towards the State of Israel.

Radicalization of Arab-Israelis is a threat to Israel - opinion.
David M. Weinberg, Jerusalem Post, Feb 10, 2022.
Two new studies warn of radicalization among Arab-Israelis and urge robust government action.
In recent years, I have been quite optimistic about the forward-looking integration of Arab-Israelis in broader Israeli society. So many positive polls and helpful government initiatives suggested that better Arab-Jewish relations were on the upswing.
But in the wake of May’s violent Arab riots and two just-published, in-depth and ill-boding studies, there is ample reason to worry that the progress could prove ephemeral. It is up to Israel to act swiftly against Arab-Israeli radicals so that Arab-Israeli moderates (the majority, I believe) can win the day.
Ostensibly, Arab-Israelis have gradually but inexorably moved to acceptance and even preference of life in the Jewish State of Israel. Recent polls suggest that 71% of Arab-Israelis feel that Israel is a good place to live; 68% prefer to live in Israel than in other countries; and 60% even says they feel Israel to be a home and a homeland. Ninety-three percent of Arab residents in eastern Jerusalem prefer to live under Israeli governance than that of the Palestinian Authority!

Where Are the Palestinian Concessions for Peace?
Bassam Tawil, Gatestobe Institute, September 28, 2023.
... As the results of the PCPSR poll showed, the Palestinian public is not impressed with the proposed concessions.
If the Palestinian Authority is currently unable or unwilling to prevent terror groups from attacking Israelis, it is truly delusional to think that it would be more diligent in controlling security in any new areas it received from Israel. Abbas has not been willing to send his security officers to arrest or kill the terrorists based in the cities of Jenin and Nablus. He knows that if he does, his people will condemn him as a "traitor" and "collaborator" with Israel, and quickly dispatch him to "drink tea up there" with the Egypt's murdered President Anwar Sadat, who was assassinated for brokering his country's 1979 peace deal with Israel. Moreover, Abbas will not go against the terrorists as long as they do not physically go against him.
Most of all, the idea of transferring more land to the Palestinians is terrible because sends a message to the Palestinian Authority that, after it failed to combat terrorism in land under its control, it will be rewarded with even more land...
The Palestinian Authority (PA), through its "Pay-for-Slay" program, proudly rewards terrorists who murder or wound Jews. In just one year, "Ramallah paid out around NIS 600 million ($187 million) in salaries for Palestinians imprisoned, jailed, or killed by Israel in 2020, according to a senior Palestine Liberation Organization official." In 2018, PA President Mahmoud Abbas said: "We will neither reduce nor withhold the allowances of the families of martyrs, prisoners, and released prisoners... if we had one single penny left, we would spend it on the families of the martyrs and the prisoners."
As the poll illustrates, support for anti-Israel terrorism among the Palestinians has risen from 53% (three months ago) to 58% today...

Palestinian Support for Hamas and War Remains High: Survey.
Public • By Pesach Benson • 21 March, 2024.
Jerusalem, 21 March, 2024 (TPS) -- A survey of Palestinians living in Gaza and the Palestinian Authority released on Wednesday found popular support for Hamas remains high despite the war.
The poll, conducted by the Ramallah-based Palestinian Center for Policy and and Survey Research found that 71% of Palestinians surveyed viewed Hamas’s October 7 attack on Israel as correct. This perception was identical between Palestinians living in the PA and Gaza.
The survey also found that Palestinian satisfaction with Hamas remains stable at 70% (75% in the PA and 62% in Gaza) and with Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar at 61% (68% in the PA and 52% in Gaza). Satisfaction with Fatah was much lower at 27% (24% in the PA and 32% in Gaza) and with Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas at 14% (8% in the PA and 22% in Gaza).
Compared to a December survey, support for Hamas rose in Gaza by 10% but dropped 10% in the Palestinian Authority

Most Palestinians Support October 7 Attack, Dissatisfied With Abbas and Fatah.
June 14, 2024.
Latest Developments.
More than two-thirds of Palestinians support Hamas’s decision to launch its killing spree in southern Israel on October 7, according to a Palestinian poll released on June 12. The poll, published by the Ramallah-based non-profit Palestinian Center for Policy and Survey Research, also indicates that Palestinian Authority (PA) President Mahmoud Abbas and his Fatah faction remain deeply unpopular. On the issue of food security, 64 percent of Palestinians in Gaza responded that they have enough food for one or two days. Some of the aid donated to the Palestinians is being sold in Gaza on the black market.
Expert Analysis.
“Palestinians in both the West Bank and Gaza are deeply radicalized to hate Israel and Jews. Deradicalization of Palestinian society — in the government, schools, mosques, and media — needs to go to the top of ‘day after’ policy discussions.” — Richard Goldberg, FDD Senior Advisor
“By intensifying hostility towards Israel and increasingly recognizing a Palestinian state that has yet to develop, the international community is rewarding Hamas for massacring Jews. Palestinians are understanding the message loud and clear: violence works.” — David May, FDD Research Manager and Senior Research Analyst
Widespread Support for Hamas’s October 7 Attack.
Only nine percent of Palestinians think that Hamas has committed war crimes since October 7, while 90 percent of Palestinians have not seen videos showing Hamas’s treatment of Israeli civilians. Additionally, increased international political attacks on Israel and growing support for Palestinian statehood have reinforced the Palestinians’ positive view of the October 7 atrocities, with 82 percent of Palestinians believing that the attack has “revived international attention to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict and that it could lead to increased recognition of Palestinian statehood.”
Plurality of Palestinians Support Hamas
Satisfaction with Hamas’s performance since October 7 stands at 75 percent, compared to 24 percent for its rival, Fatah. Hamas leader in Gaza Yahya Sinwar enjoys a 65 percent satisfaction rating compared to Abbas’s 10 percent. Nearly 90 percent of Palestinians want Abbas to resign.
The poll also found that 40 percent of Palestinians support Hamas, compared to only 20 percent for Fatah. The poll found that 69 percent view the PA as a burden, 65 percent oppose a two-state solution, and 63 percent support armed intifada.
If a three-way election occurred between Marwan Barghouti, who is serving multiple life sentences for his role in the murder of Jews during the Second Intifada, Hamas political leader Ismail Haniyeh, and Abbas, 42 percent would support Barghouti, 27 percent would support Haniyeh, and five percent would support Abbas. In a contest between Haniyeh and Abbas, Haniyeh would prevail with 43 percent to Abbas’s 11 percent.
