Poll: 79% of Israelis see that the peace process has failed

Two polls whose results were published yesterday in Israel said that most of the Israelis consider that the peace process "died" and it is impossible to reach a full peace agreement with the Palestinians.

The first poll whose results was published by the Israeli newspaper Jerusalem Post said that 79% of the Israelis comprised in the poll expressed their belief that the Oslo peace process which has been ongoing for 7 years and begun by former Israeli prime minister Yitzhak Rabin and the Palestinian president Yasser Arafat has failed.

In the second poll, 61% said that it is impossible to reach a full peace agreement with the Palestinians and 22% said that it is possible. Yet the 2 polls referred that a massive majority of the Israelis are not happy with the way with which Ihud Barak the Israeli prime minister tackled the current crisis.
