Will this be mentioned when people inevitably bash Obama for
not sucking up enough to AIPAC?A majority of Israelis think their government should hold talks with Hamas for a cease-fire in Gaza and the release of a captured soldier, according to a poll in a leading Israeli newspaper Wednesday.
The poll, published in the liberal newspaper Haaretz, found 64 percent of Israelis in favor of a dialog with the Islamist movement.
Hamas does not recognize Israel's right to exist, and is considered a terrorist organization by the West.
Until recently, the Israeli public had opposed such talks, the newspaper said.
