The percentage of Palestinian poll respondents who prefer Israeli sovereignty over Jerusalem increased significantly from 2010 to 2022.
According to the results of a recently released poll by the Ramallah-based Palestinian Center for Policy and Survey Research (PCPSR) more Palestinians than ever prefer Israeli sovereignty over Jerusalem.
The last time the poll was conducted in 2010, the percentage Palestinian respondents who preferred Israeli sovereignty was only 6%. In 2022, that figure rose to 19%.
In 2010, the percentage of Palestinian respondents who preferred Palestinian sovereignty was 52%. By 2022, that number dropped to a mere 38%.
While those may be interesting figures, PCPSR also gathered some disturbing data regarding Palestinian attitudes toward terror and violence.
Specifically, a December 2022 PCPSR poll found 72% of Palestinians support forming armed groups like the “Lions’ Den,” which perpetrated horrific murders targeting Israelis, using a teen attacker in at least one case.
