EDIT: There is no source available for this poll, or for any "Dialog Center."

An overwhelming majority of 86% of respondents, including 79% of coalition supporters, said the surprise attack from Gaza is a failure of the country's leadership.

But ... this is because of the failure of Netanyahu to prevent the attacks (among other failures), not because they think the Israeli government is treating Palestinians unjustly.

Yeah, this is the point I keep wondering about. What was the expectation? People only take so much injustice before snapping.

They expected a few bombings now and then, mostly stopped by the good guys from movies.
