Majority of Israelis Favor War with Iran

Editorial Note

We bring to the attention the results of a poll conducted in Israel, quoted by Angus Reid Global Monitor. As in the West, Israeli public opinion has been lurred into supporting a military agenda. It has been influenced by extensive media propaganda regarding Iran’s non-existant nuclear weapons program, where Iran is presented as a threat to global security.
