Israeli Public Is Increasingly Skeptical About Lasting Peace

[Ken Dayenu]

More than a year into the Israel-Hamas war, Israelis express growing doubts about peace with Palestinians, according to a Pew Research Center survey.

The survey was conducted Feb. 5-March 11, 2025, among a nationally representative sample of 998 Israeli adults. It is the Center’s second annual survey in Israel since the start of the war on Oct. 7, 2023. The field period coincided with the most recent ceasefire between Israel and Hamas, and the survey was completed before hostilities resumed on March 18.

1. The Netanyahu strategy is to always

have an enemy on the border to use to justify military action.

3. One can hope

One can hope Netanyahu's days are numbered. I detest Netanyahu, since the 90s(?). I can't recall when his first corruption charges appeared. I held my tongue after Oct 7. It wasn't the time to be critical. It is now past time for him to go.

6. Having an enemy on the border is a fact, not a strategy.

Biot to excuse Netanyahu, who is horrific

7. Netanyahu is even making noise about going after Jordan so I

disagree that he isn't using a strategy of always having an "enemy" to justify his actions.

2. So the Israeli's are going to do...what?

For almost 80-years Israel has been as murderous as their former Nazi oppressors in their treatment of Palestinians, so what is going to change now?

4. Calling Israelis Nazis is not helpful

Calling Israelis Nazis is not helpful if you want to have a discussion.

5. They've murdered 11 million?
