| Editor's Commentary: For the record, while roughly one third of Israeli's would emigrate if faced with another war, it's worth remembering that the other side has no such option. They are stuck, squeezed into a very narrow band between Israel and the ocean, with nowhere to go. - prh, Editor Axis of Logic One third of Israelis said they couldn't deal with the psychological repercussions of another war. Following Israel´s recent war on the Gaza strip, Israel´s Channel 2 conducted a poll which found that 30% of the population would emigrate, Press TV reported on Sunday. Fifty-six percent of respondents said they weren't thinking of emigrating, while 14 percent were undecided. The survey also showed more Israelis were now thinking of leaving occupied Palestinian land, after having lived through three wars in six years. However the poll did not state how many Israelis were interviewed in the survey. According to Press TV, a million Israelis have left occupied territories over the last twenty years. The Israeli assault in July and August killed over 2000 Palestinians, most of them civilians, and many of them children. The Israeli government says that 72 were killed on their side, five of them civilians. Source URL |
