montelatici, et al,
Well, I'm not sure this is true. You should beware of over exaggerating with the Term "only." The misuse of "ONLY" is closely related to the abuse of using "NEVER" and "ALWAYS" to establish your point.

In this context, the implication is that, given a limited understanding as to the reasoning, the outcome has an adverse impact. Or that the impact is driven against Israel no matter what the criminal history of the Palestinian Jihadist and Fedayeen.
Of course part of the total understanding is to determine what the contemporary understanding is, in comparison the the past and the the future. The implication here is that the respondents would rather have:
• PAST: Another Islamic Government with a leadership that has no moral objection to the 1970 assassination attempts against the King of Jordan; or conducted the like of a 1972 Olympic Massacre in Munich.
• PRESENT: Palestine, from its river to its sea, from its north to its south, (that means all the territory formerly under the Mandate of Palestine) is the land of the Palestinians; their homeland, and their legitimate right. The Palestinians will not relinquish an inch or any part of it -for any reason or under any circumstances and pressures (meaning NO Israel at all).
* FUTURE: The respondent would prefer to see the land of Palestine govern by Islamic Sharia (law). The Islamic Resistance Movement (HAMAS) believes that any procedure, treaty, or law in contradiction to Islamic Sharia, where Palestine is concerned, is null and void. (Both the DAESH and Taliban are Sharia Law based systems.)
Do any of you really believe that the entire world, minus the US, actually believes that the Fatah/HAMAS Government should replace the State of Israel and extend Sharia Law to the entire territory?
The partnership with the Palestinians desired by King Hussein fell apart in September, 1970. The pervasive and chaotic presence of armed Palestinian fedayeen groups who expected immunity from Jordan’s laws was leading to a state of virtual anarchy throughout the Kingdom. Moderate Palestinian leaders were unable to reign in extremist elements, who ambushed the king’s motorcade twice and perpetrated a series of spectacular hijackings. Forced to respond decisively in order to preserve his country from anarchy, King Hussein ordered the army into action.
The situation prompted different reactions throughout the Arab world. While most leaders privately expressed sympathy with the position of King Hussein, many took a public stance in favor of the fedayeen in order to embellish their credentials as “Arab nationalists.” The conflict reached a crisis point in September when some 200 Syrian tanks, camouflaged rather unconvincingly as Palestinian Liberation Army tanks, crossed into Jordan. The Syrians were bereft of air cover, however, and Jordanian aircraft forced a Syrian retreat within three days. In a brief yet intense campaign ending in July 1971, the Jordanian army put an end to the chaotic actions of these Palestinians guerrillas in Amman.
Do you really think that Jordan or the surrounding Arab Governments want to have the parasitic Palestinian population, most of which having been on the dole for more than a generation, released on the Middle East Region?
We look at surveys like this, but never ask the question "what does it mean?" What are the respondents really saying?
Most Respectfully,
