An informal poll aired Thursday evening on Channel 14's 'Patriots' program found that 89% of participants believe Israel will stand firm and not withdraw its forces from the security zone in Lebanon, according to host Yinon Magal. The poll reflects audience sentiment amid ongoing debate over Israel's posture along the northern border.
Thursday evening's 'Patriots' program on Channel 14 conducted an informal instant poll asking viewers whether they believe Israel would withdraw its forces from the security zone in Lebanon under the emerging agreement. Host Yinon Magal reported that 89% of respondents believe Israel will not retreat. The poll, while unscientific, captures public sentiment among the program's audience at a time when the government faces pressure over the northern security arrangements. As The Zioneer reported on Monday, sources indicated that Israel would not leave Lebanon but would also not strike if the ceasefire holds — a posture that appears to align with the majority of the poll's participants. The result is consistent with a similar poll aired Tuesday, in which 99% of viewers said Israel should resist withdrawal even at the cost of a confrontation with the Trump administration.
