Public Perception of Threats in Israel

I'm waiting for the part where it's proven I'm a genius.

They asked voters from

the various parties who

they think poses a greater

danger to Israel,

the Haredim or the Arabs?

As is known, that's Irit's test question,

Linor.

Definitely.

It says, from the left and right,

then straight to Eisenkot's leadership.

Something like 70 percent think the Haredim are more

dangerous.

Seventy percent think the Haredim are

more dangerous to Israel, and only 20

percent think the Arabs are more dangerous.

What that means, among other things,

is that the media's deception campaign

managed to convince 20 percent of Eisenkot's

voters that Eisenkot is right- wing.

The Democrats.

Yes, yes.

Well, among the Democrats,

80 percent think the Haredim are

more

dangerous, about five percent

think the Arabs are more

dangerous.

Five percent, after October 7,

think the Arabs are more dangerous

than the Haredim.

What about Bennett and Lapid?

Bennett and Lapid think roughly

like the rest of Eisenkot's voters,

sixty- something percent think

the Haredim are more dangerous.

And 25 percent think

Arabs are more dangerous.

That is, a quarter of Bennett's voters are

actually right- wingers who misled him.

And in Likud, the ruling party,

a full 90 percent think Arabs are

more dangerous,

while about five percent think the Haredim are

more dangerous.

In Religious Zionism,

it's even more extreme, and in Otzma

Jewishness is like it is in Religious Zionism.

When I argue with you about the question

of what an intellectual is, who an intellectual is,

I tell you that an intellectual is someone

who understands something others

don't understand and can explain it

to the public. Not someone who has

read all the books Menachem Mautner

has read and then doesn't

follow the Netanyahu trial.

Do you understand the difference?
