"Over half -- 59% -- of Israelis are afraid to travel outside the country, with 25% saying they are usually afraid to do so, and 34% saying they have become more afraid this past year, a poll commissioned by the World Zionist Organization shows. [...]
"Another worrying number also emerged from the poll: 25% of Israelis believe there is reason to fear that another Holocaust will be perpetrated against the Jewish people, and 24% believe there is a chance that the State of Israel will cease to exist.
"Over two-thirds (67%) of those polled are worried about the safety of Jewish communities abroad, with 66% saying they believe European governments are not working effectively to battle anti-Semitism and a further 14% saying European governments are not fighting anti-Semitism at all. Given the rising anti-Semitism in Europe and worldwide, 39% of respondents say that European Jews should emigrate to Israel. However, 46% of those polled expressed understanding that Jews continued to live in Europe for economic, social, and other reasons."
