The June 2002 poll by the Jerusalem Media and Communications Centre showed that a large majority - nearly seven out of 10 people - supported the suicide operations, about 60% of those expressing their "strong" support.
And this is an IMPROVEMENT...

However, as Israel has conducted its massive military operations in the West Bank over the past few months, support for suicide operations has weakened, from a high of 74% in December 2001 to the current 68%.

The fall is more marked in the West Bank - which has born the brunt of the crackdown - where the figure is 66%.
