The Centre for Iranian Studies at Tel Aviv University has carried out a poll in Israel surrounding the topic of nuclear weapons and an Israeli military strike on Iran.

The poll asked participants if they prefer an immediate war with Iran or if they prefer to give diplomacy a chance and then a war. 51% of respondents replied that they prefered an immediate war as opposed to 49% who prefered diplomacy and then if needed a war.

“The Israeli public is split almost evenly between those who support an immediate strike on Iran’s nuclear facilities (51%) and those who believe that Israel should wait for the results of US engagement before pursuing alternative paths (49%), a new poll revealed.

The poll, conducted by the Center for Iranian Studies at Tel Aviv University from a representative sample of 509 Israeli adults, also found that 81% of the Israeli public believes that Iran will attain a nuclear bomb and 70% would not consider emigrating from Israel should Iran achieve nuclear capability.

However, according to the poll most Israelis (74%) do not believe that the current American policy of engagement will persuade Iran to change its course….” {Source: Ynet News}
