Fewer Israeli Arabs calling themselves "Palestinian," more considering themselves "Israeli"

Here is an interesting result from a poll done by New Wave Research for Local Call and 972:


This means that a vast majority of Israeli Arabs 65% - identify with the term "Israeli" and the number who identify as Palestinian only has been cut by nearly half in five years, from 26% to 14%.

Also, more identify as only Arab than as Palestinian.

This is not what one would expect given the worldwide push by Israel haters to separate Israeli Arabs from Israeli Jews and to tell the world that they are treated as second class citizens. Despite the "most right-wing government in Israel's history" that supposedly has enshrined racism as its core philosophy, Israeli Arabs are now more likely to consider themselves Israeli than five years ago.

Don't expect Israel haters to celebrate this indication of Israeli Arabs integrating into Israeli society.
