A recent survey revealed that one out of every three Arabs holding Israeli citizenship does not support Israel’s right to exist as a Jewish and democratic state, even if Israel would agree to give land to the Palestinian Authority. However more than 60 percent of the Arabs surveyed said they feared that Arab towns may be given to the PA in a land swap agreement, and expressed concern at the thought of losing their Israeli citizenship.
--An internal Shabak (General Security Service) document says Israel's Arabs are a long-range strategic danger to Israel's character and very existence. The document says that Israel's Arab population is a "genuine long-range danger to the Jewish character and very existence of the State of Israel." Prime Minister Ehud Olmert received worrisome data in various spheres, including increasing Israeli-Arab solidarity and identification with terrorist elements, Hizbullah and the Hamas government in the Palestinian Authority. The report found that in the year 2006, 21 Israeli-Arab terror cells were uncovered, involving 24 Arab citizens. In 2005, the numbers were 17 terror cells involving 22 Arabs.
