In mid-September 2012 a poll surveying Israeli attitudes was commissioned by the Yisraela Goldblum Fund and conducted on the eve of Rosh Hashanah by the polling agency Dialog, The results were first presented to the public by Haaretz journalist Gideon Levy on October 23, 2012, under the headline:'Survey: Most Israeli Jews would support apartheid regime in Israel.' In the wake of a controversy, Haaretz emended this to 'Survey: Most Israeli Jews wouldn't give Palestinians vote if West Bank was annexed', stating that the original headline 'did not accurately reflect the findings of the Dialog poll'.[1] According to Haaretz, in the poll, 58% of respondents said Israel practiced apartheid against the Palestinians,[2] and a third said Israeli Arabs should be denied the vote in Israel.[3] Both the poll and Haaretz's presentation of its results have been challenged.
Deustche Welle described the poll as "set[ting] off a storm of reactions across" Israel.[4]
