TERRORISTS

t that a "get tough"policy on the part
the United States toward Israel would
proVe prospects for reduced terrorism.
ly six percent of the Jews agreed.
ounger respondents, both Jew and
n-Jew, were less militant than their
ers and more supportive of a "get
gh" policy toward Israel.
hile half of the non-Jews 45 years old
older agreed strongly that Israel should
e military action against terrorists, 38
rcent under 45 held the same view. Sim-
ly, 59 percent of older Jews strongly
or Israeli military action, while only 44
rcent of younger Jews agreed.
ounger non-Jews were also less likely
an their elders to favor U.S. military ac-
ii against terrorists or Israeli action
ainst countries supporting terrorists.
hile 51 percent of those 45 and over
ought that the U.S. and Israel should
armed force to strike against terrorists
countries supporting them, only 43 per-
t of the poll respondents under the age
45 felt the same way.
ews offered similar responses, with
unger less likely than older Jews to
or American military action against
untries that support terrorists. Twenty
rcent of the Jewish respondents under
e age of 45 felt that the U.S. ought to
e military force, while .27 percent of
ose 45 and over agreed.
The widest gap between older and
unger Jews opened in response to the
ue of whether a U.S. "get tough" policy
ward Israel would help reduce terrorism.
ly three percent of older Jews agreed
th that approach, which implies eco-
mic and political pressure on Israel to
more conciliatory toward the PLO.
enty-six percent of younger Jews felt
at it would help.
American Jewish leaders have expressed
ncern over whether younger Jews are
ss supportive of Israel than previous
nerations and whether an erosion of in-
rest in the Jewish state might translate
to apathy during a time of special need.
But according to the survey, younger
.d older Jews shared similar views con-
rning Israeli negotiations with the PLO.
bout a fifth of each group felt that a
ore accommodating posture on the part
Israel would help reduce terrorism.
Poll results suggested that younger
ws would be "tougher" on Israel if
and d not the PLO, was the party
ing the prodding. The question is how
ese younger Jews would react if the U.S.
as pushing Israel to be more accommo-
ating toward the PLO. -
Non-Jews who responded to the survey
ere much more likely than Jews to agree
at if America "got tough" on Israel and
rael eased its no-negotiation stance
_ward the PLO, terrorism would be re-
uced. Younger non-Jews in particular
ere likely to agree with such approaches.

Nearly two-thirds of the younger non-
Jews polled favored a "get tough" policy,
while 46 percent of their elders felt that
way. Just over half of these younger non-
Jews would like Israel to ease its position
toward the PLO, a stance held by 39 per-
cent of their elders.
The differences that emerged in the
survey between Jewish and non-Jewish
responses over negotiations with the PLO
are similar to those found in a 1981 study
by Yankelovich, Skelly and White for the
American Jewish Committee.

About The Study

Two separate samples were drawn
for the study, which was conducted'
over the telephone by Action Surveys,'
Inc. of Rockville, Maryland, a na.-
tional opinion polling company. The
calls were made between January 22'
and February 3, 1986.
The non-Jewish sample of 312 was
drawn primarily from adults selected'
at random within randomly selected'
households. within Maryland. Respon-
dents who identified themselves as
Jews were removed from this data set
and included in the Jewish sample.
The Jewish sample of 236 was
drawn primarily from adults selected
at random from lists of Jewish house-
holds. Respondents who identified
themselves as non-Jews were removed

from this data set and added to the
non-Jewish sample.
The sampling error for the .non-
Jewish sample is +/- 6% and +1- 6.6%
for the Jewish sample. Comparisons
between samples increases the error
factofto 8.5%.
