Palestinians Still Support Suicide Bombings
(Ha'aretz) - Yoel Esteron The terrible truth is that most of the Palestinians prefer to continue their national suicide as long as they manage to kill some Israelis along the way. How else are we to interpret the statistics? Sixty percent of the Palestinians support suicide bombings, according to a survey conducted last month by the Palestinian research institute, JMCC. Some may take comfort in the fact that support for these attacks is steadily declining: 74% in December 2001, 68% in June 2002. At this rate, maybe a solid majority will oppose them by 2007.
