Vast majority of Israelis believe that another October 7-style invasion and massacre could happen, highlighting sense of insecurity after more than two and a half years of war.By World Israel News StaffRoughly three out of every four Israelis believe that their country could face another security failure on the scale of the October 7 Hamas-led invasion, according to a Channel 12 poll published on Friday night.The survey, broadcast by Channel 12’s “Ulpan Shishi” program to mark 1,000 days since the October 7 massacre, found that 74% of respondents said they feared that “another debacle like October 7 could take place in the future.”Twenty percent said they did not fear such a scenario, and 6% said they did not know.The poll underscored the lingering public anxiety over Israel’s security posture nearly three years after thousands of Hamas-led terrorists invaded southern Israel, killing some 1,200 people and abducting 251 others to the Gaza Strip.The public was divided over whether Israel’s security situation had improved since the attack.Thirty-three percent of respondents said the situation had improved, 33% said it had worsened, 27% said it had not changed, and 7% said they did not know.Channel 12 reported that the fear of a future October 7-style failure cut across political lines. Among voters who supported coalition parties in the last election, 66% said they were worried that a similar debacle could happen again.The survey also found broad support for a formal state commission of inquiry into the failures that led to the attack.Asked whether they supported an investigation by a statutory state commission of inquiry, whose members would be appointed by the Supreme Court president, 66% said yes, 25% said no, and 9% said they did not know.The new Channel 12 poll also reflected broader political pressure on the government. According to the survey, 53% of respondents said the October 7 failure would influence how they vote in the next election. The poll also found that 55% preferred someone other than Netanyahu as prime minister, while 34% preferred Netanyahu.Channel 12 said the survey was conducted by the Midgam polling company in cooperation with iPanel. The network did not publish a sample size or margin of error.The post October 7-like invasion could happen again, say 74% of Israelis appeared first on World Israel News.
