Peace Now poll shows majority of settlers want to build up West Bank
By: Haaretz   
Published: July 27, 2005   
 
A poll conducted by Market-West on behalf of the far Left Peace Now movement shows 67% of settlers are in favor of building of West Bank settlements.

The 67% figure marks an increase, up from 61% of the entire settler population in January of this year.

While 51.3 percent of those settlers who defined themselves as "secular" feel that further construction must be prevented, 42.7% expressed support for more building in the West Bank.

A whopping 86.6% of religious settlers expressed support for continued construction, while just 7.5% oppose more building.
