xp erience the joy o f Jewis h ho lida
New York (JTA) — American
Jews remain strongly supportive
of Israeli policies on the peace
process, according to a new poll
sponsored by the American Jew-
ish Committee.
But the survey revealed less
enthusiasm among American
Jews than a similar poll found a
year ago, immediately after the
signing of the Declaration of Prin-
ciples between Israel and the
Palestine Liberation Organiza-
tion.
According to the survey of
1,000 American Jews conduct-
ed in mid-August, 77 percent sup-
ported the Israeli government's
handling of the peace negotia-
tions with the Arabs, and 10 per-
cent oppose. This compares to 84
r percent in support of the Israeli
government a year ago.
Similarly, 61 percent of those
•surveyed believed that the plan
for Palestinian autonomy in-
creases the chance for peace with
the Arabs, down from 73 percent
a year ago.
"People responded in a less eu-
phoric, more realistic manner,"
said David Harris, AJCommit-
• tee's executive director.
He noted that the survey indi-
cated that "the Arabs, and par-
ticularly the PLO, have not
persuaded a number of American
Jews that they can be trusted and
relied upon in this process."
Only 18 percent of those sur-
veyed believed the PLO could be
relied upon "to honor its agree-
ments and refrain from terrorist
activity against Israel." Sixty-five
percent did not trust the PLO.
A year ago, 34 percent felt the
PLO could be relied upon.
The poll found one group res-
olutely opposed to the peace ac-
cord: the Orthodox.
This reflects a shift from last
year, when they were already
"the most skeptical group," said
\-) Mr. Singer, but had a majority
that approved of the peace talks.
Only 35 percent of the Ortho-
dox respondents supported the
way the Israeli government has
handled the peace negotiations,
with 54 percent opposed. A year
ago, 52 percent of the Orthodox
supported it, and only 32 percent
opposed.
Meanwhile, the Israel Policy
/–) Forum — organized last year to
rally support behind the policies
of Prime Minister Yitzhak Ra-
bin's Labor Party — this week re-
leased two other surveys, one of
the American public as a whole
and one of the Israeli public.
In its survey of 1,000 Ameri-
cans, the group found that Amer-
icans held a favorable view of the
• Israeli government's peace efforts
• by a solid 57 percent majority,
with 22 percent holding an unfa-
vorable view and the remainder
unsure.
