Secure America Now reported:
In a poll conducted by Democrat Pat Caddell and Republican John McLaughlin for the non-partisan organization Secure America Now http://www.secureamericanow.org/ , American Jewish voters expressed admiration for many of President Obama’s personal qualities (honesty, leadership, intelligence…) they also expressed deep concern about the state of Israel/US relations and policies being championed by the Obama Administration.
93% are concerned about Israel being threatened by Arab nations and Iran that want to destroy Israel.
81% are against Israel being forced to return to its pre-1967 borders.
81% agree with the Administration as they oppose the UN recognizing a Palestinian State
76% are concerned about Islamic terrorism committed in the US by American born Muslims
73% believe Jerusalem should remain the united capital of Israel and only 8% support that the US should force Israel to give away parts of Jerusalem.88% believes that a prerequisite for Palestinian Statehood is their recognition of Israel as a Jewish State.
And by a a 54-21 majority they feel that the Arab Spring has made the world more dangerous for Israel.That this divide may have political consequences can be seen in the answers to the following: Despite a job approval rating of 63% for President Obama, only two in five Jewish voters (43% ) say they would vote to re-elect President Obama. The plurality (48% ) would consider someone else and 9% are undecided.
