TEL AVIV – Nearly 60% of Palestinians support the current so-called wave of terror attacks against Israelis, according to a new survey published Sunday.
Just 41% of those polled oppose the violence.
The survey found a sharp contrast between Gaza and the West Bank, with 79% of Gazans backing the attacks, compared to 51% of Palestinians in the West Bank.
The survey was conducted by the Palestinian research institute, the Jerusalem Media and Communications Center (JMCC) earlier this month, and covered some 1,200 Palestinians from the West Bank and the Gaza Strip, with a margin of error of three percentage points.
The two-state solution still remains the most acceptable resolution to the conflict, with an overwhelming majority of nearly 70% opposing any change in the official policy of the Palestinian Authority.
Only 24% of respondents supported a change in policy demanding a one-state solution with Arabs and Jews living side by side.

There will never be peace in that region. Theyve been fighting for thousands of years, and will NEVER be peaceful in our lifetime. The sooner we accept that, the sooner we can focus on our own problems.
