Rasa News Agency reports – A recent survey conducted by Israel’s Channel 2 shows that more than 30 percent of Zionists living inside the occupied territories of Palestine consider leaving Israel.

“The war on Gaza has affected the normal life of the people of Israel” Channel two says “and leaving Israel cannot be considered treason for the people living there anymore.”

During the show, the Israelis who have moved to Europe recently also showed up to announce that they feel happier and that they don’t need to be “worried” about their loved ones or the economic difficulties anymore.

By 26 August, the Israeli Defence Forces reported that Hamas, Islamic Jihad and other militant groups had fired 4,564 rockets and mortars from Gaza into Israel, while IDF attacked 5,263 targets in Gaza leaving 2143 Gazans dead, 75 percent of them civilians. While on the other side of the conflict, Israel had reported 71 casualties including 66 IDF soldiers.
