The July Peace Index: Support for the fence, and for the hudna

American opposition notwithstanding, the general Israeli Jewish public today - even more than in the past - is basically agreed on the need to erect a separation fence between Israel and the Palestinians.

However, this consensus does not extend to the fence contours. A fence that leaves Jewish settlements "outside" is supported by a far smaller majority, and the number of those who support placing
Palestinian territories "inside" the fence equals the number of those opposing it.
