Transfer of Arabs from the Palestinian Authority to actual Arab countries was the most popular solution to the Arab-Israeli conflict, according to a poll this week by Israel National News. Of the more than 6,400 people surveyed, 53.2 said ‘Transfer of Palestinians to another Arab country’ when asked, “What’s the best solution for the Arab-Israeli conflict?”
The “two-states for two peoples” solution being pushed by the United States and the international community received 30.8 percent support, while the idea of giving Palestinians Jordanian citizenship was approved by 14.5 percent. Maintaining the status quo received 1.3 percent of the vote.
New poll: 53% of Israelis think ethnic cleansing is the solution to the conflict
Israelis talk often and loudly about their desires for peace. But its never been clear precisely what peace concept it is they desire. In particular, Israeli notions of peace have never gone so far as to grant the Palestinians the same national rights that Israelis claim for themselves. Well, according to a new poll by Israeli National News (disclaimer: its a right-wing rag, sample size “more than 6,400″), a majority of Israelis are clear about what kind of “peace” they desire.
53.2% of surveyed Israelis say the “solution” to the conflict was the ethnic cleansing (”transfer”) of Palestinians out of occupied Palestine and into other neighboring Arab countries. This was the most popular option among all alternatives, including the two state solution, Jordanian citizenship in the West Bank, status quo, etc. For comparative purposes, only 30.8% of Israelis support the “two-states for two peoples” framework for peace.
Keep this information in mind next to you hear Israeli hasbara about “partners for peace” or when someone tries to claim that the two-state solution is the only “realistic” solution to the conflict. If only those Palestinians would “recognize Israel’s right to exist”, then everything would be SO much better.

The Balfour Declaration of 1917 (dated 2 November 1917) was a formal statement of policy by the British government stating that "His Majesty's government view with favour the establishment in Palestine of a national home for the Jewish people, and will use their best endeavours to facilitate the achievement of this object, it being clearly understood that nothing shall be done which may prejudice the civil and religious rights of existing non-Jewish communities in Palestine, or the rights and political status enjoyed by Jews in any other country. It further stated that the declaration is a sign of "sympathy with Jewish Zionist aspirations."
Clearly the above statement was and agreement foisted upon the peoples of the region, both Arab’s and indigenous Jews, by the British government to placate the Zionist in England. It is little wonder then that the region is and has been in torment for generations. Slide forward to this time slot and we now have the Israeli government stealing land for settlements in Palestine eying the water resources of the region , religious leaders promoting genocide of non Jews, and then fifty three percent of the population calling for ethnic cleansing. Then of course we have a main stream media and governments in western countries that are largely controlled by Zionist backers which can’t or won’t print the facts or truth as they are. Little wonder then that support for Israel is at an all time low.
I dont ever think the support for israel was ever that high to begin with! Their paid propagandists are some of their only "supporters", who come out in swarms and induce the same old tired talking points and defenses ad nauseum. Zionism is a cancer and until it is eradicated this world will never know even a semblance of peace.
I think Zionism is a cancer as well… but every comment I post disappears.
Like always… the 2% majority determine what we can say about them and their murderous cousins who use Pali kids for target practice and sell the body parts for cash.
What vermin.
