Polls taken of public opinion after capitulation are quite revealing:
Update: Hugh Fitzgerald has more to say.
An overwhelming majority of Israelis (77%) believe that the government’s decision to remove metal detectors at the Temple Mount following rioting by Muslims signified capitulation on Israel’s part, according to a poll commissioned by Israel’s Channel 2.What they did was very poor management, and now, with riots continuing, it could get worse. The caving was also a terrible disfavor to the policemen who were murdered.
In the poll of 502 Israeli adults, conducted by Midgam Research & Consulting, 68% of respondents said installing metal detectors at the Temple Mount’s gates following a terror attack there that saw two Israeli-Druze policemen murdered by three Arab gunmen two weeks ago was the correct move.
More than three-quarters of all respondents said the subsequent decision to remove them 10 days later was a sign of surrender.
Sixty-seven percent of those polled also said they were dissatisfied with the way Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu handled the security crisis at the holy site.
