Over half the Zionist Jews support the expulsion of Arabs from the country, a new survey has revealed.
Conducted by the Pew Research Centre between October 2014 and May 2015, the study included 5,601 Zionist citizens, including Palestinian’s, and showed that 48 per cent of Zionist Jews and 71 per cent of religious Zionist Jews support the expulsion of Palestinian’s from the country. With regards to secular Jews, 58 per cent opposed the idea of expelling Arabs, with one-third in favour of the idea.
Seventy-nine per cent of Palestinian’s asserted that there is “a lot of discrimination in Zionist society”, while 74 per cent of Jews claimed that they do not see such discrimination.
The vast majority of Zionist Jews said they saw I$raHell as both a Jewish and a democratic state, while 89 per cent of secular Jews said that there should be a preference for democratic principles over religious laws. But 89 per cent of ultra-Orthodox Haredi Zionist Jews believe religious laws should take precedence.
The majority of secular Jews said that they identify as Israelis first and as Jews second, while Haredi and religious people identify thought the opposite.
