Key Findings

A survey indicates that 82% of Israeli Jews favor expelling Palestinians from Gaza, and a significant portion supports similar expulsions from within Israel's borders. Furthermore, a notable minority endorses the mass killing of civilians in captured enemy cities.

Analysis

The results are interpreted as reflecting a growing radicalization within religious Zionist circles since Israel's 2005 withdrawal from Gaza. The lack of a strong counter-narrative from secular Israelis challenging Jewish supremacy is also highlighted as a contributing factor.

These disturbing trends reflect the radicalization of religious Zionism since Israel's 2005 withdrawal from Gaza, and the failure of secular Israeli Jews to articulate a vision that challenges Jewish supremacy.
