SURVEY RESULTS: Week Ending 09/09/06


The panel was asked to score the candidates on the following issues, on a scale of one to 10, with one being "worst" for Israel and 10 being "best" for Israel.

The first four questions deal with ongoing events and so will change each month; the fifth is a general question that will be asked each time:

1. How much of an effort will the candidate make to resolve the Israeli-Palestinian conflict?

2. To what extent does the candidate view Israel as a strategic asset?

3. HOW MUCH OF AN EMOTIONAL CONNECTION DOES THE CANDIDATE HAVE TO ISRAEL?

4. How willing would the candidate be to use military force to prevent Iran from getting nuclear weapons?

5. HOW "GOOD FOR ISRAEL" IS THE CANDIDATE?


The results are on the top of this post...
