Israelis by a 4-to-1 margin are more confident than Palestinians in how President Obama handles his foreign policy, a poll found.

The Pew Research Center poll released Thursday found that 61 percent of Israelis “express confidence in the American president to do the right thing regarding world affairs,” as opposed to 15 percent of Palestinians. …

Pluralities in both polities want greater engagement from the president in the peace process. …

Results depend on the way you frame the question.

Ask another question: how many of you feel that O
is anti-Israel?

and the results may be quite different.

Twisted logic... Misleading is the PURPOSE here of this article 9especially the title).

What this is really saying is that the even if the Isrealis don’t trust Obama very much at all, the Palestinians trust him even less.

See my tagline...

you read this headline exactly as the democraps WANTED to spin it.

Look at it this way. Imagine you know a politician who everyone on your block hates. Except he especially pissed-off the neighbor next door. So, you don't like him but your neighbor likes him even less.

Then the local newspapers says YOU SUPPORT him 4 times more than your neighbor...

How is that Muslim outreach working for ya Mr. President?
Palestinians don't trust the west no matter who's in charge.
Israelis haven't lost all hope just yet.
They may actually look forward to the day when Washington can no longer tell them to stand down.
Like what just happened in Syria, it probably did not have 0's approval but the Israelis did it anyway.

Well, the vast majority of (voting) Jews in America voted for him. It makes no sense.

Really! Israelis choosing between Obama (a U.S. President) and “Palistinians” is like choosing the devil who torments you less.

>> Jewish Vote Goes 69 Percent For Barack Obama: Exit Polls <<

Shhh! How DARE you report actual facts.

Some freepers would rather live in their fantasy world that Jews are a "swing vote" that's "in play" for Republicans when they give 70-80% of their votes to Democrats decade after decade, and Catholics are a "liberal voting bloc" that's "totally owed by the Democrat Party" when 50% of Catholics vote Republican and every GOP president in recent times has won the Catholic vote, even in Bush's case, when a Catholic ran against him.

Pew polls have a stink on them.

Thanks Olog-hai.
