More Israeli Arabs feel a part of the State of Israel than ever before

The latest Israel Democracy Institute survey had one very interesting chart:

The text is even more interesting:

In both the Jewish and Arab samples, this survey found the highest percentage of respondents who feel part of the state since we began asking this question in 2003. In both groups, but especially among Arabs, there has been a very sharp increase relative to the measurement taken in June 2023.

Within the Arab sample, the share of Christians and Druze who feel part of the State of Israel (84%) is markedly higher than that of Muslims (66%), but this share still constitutes a sizable majority in all religious groups. A breakdown by age finds that the largest increase in feeling part of the State of Israel and its problems is among the youngest cohort, aged 18–24 (June, 44%; November, 70%).

 Furthermore, of those Arab respondents who feel part of the State of Israel and its problems, 35% are optimistic about the future of the country, compared with just 4% of those who do not feel part of the state.

Israeli Arabs were apparently aghast at Hamas' pogrom, far more so than Palestinian Arabs in the West Bank, who generally cheered the attack.
