Kahane was Right? Most Jews Think It's OK to Prod Arabs to Go Was Rabbi Meir Kahane right? A poll by the Israeli Democracy Institute suggests most Israelis might agree with the late rabbi and political leader, who favored encouraging the emigration of Arabs from Israel.
The annual Democracy Survey found that 53% of Jewish people in Israel maintain that the state is entitled to encourage Arabs to emigrate from Israel. Eighty six percent believe that critical decisions for the state should be taken by a Jewish majority.
Trust in the Supreme Court is at an apparent all-time low: only slightly more than half the general Israeli public—54%—state that they trust the Supreme Court fully or to some extent, while 44% state openly that they do not trust it. Only 41% of the respondents have full or partial trust in the police.
The IDI survey shows that the sector of the Israeli public with the most nationalistic views on Arabs living in Israel is the Haredi-religious one. While just 33.5% of secular Jews are opposed to granting such Arabs equal rights, 51% of traditional Jews, 65% of religious Jews, and 72% of ultra-Orthodox Jews oppose to the idea.
As for equality in the allocation of resources, 55% of respondents think that greater resources should be allocated to Jewish communities than to Arab ones. Among right-wingers, a clear majority (71%) agree with it.
