79. let's take a look at the paragraph directly prior to the one
you persist in posting as a stand alone

Palestinians also worked in Israel and watched Israeli television. They saw that, for its own citizens, the Israeli system had distinct virtues. This is not easy for even ardent Palestinian democrats to acknowledge.

one can not also help but notice that you constantly switch between Israeli Arabs and Palestinian even calling Israeli Arabs, Arabs Israeli's and Israeli Palestinians in the same post are you confused or is that you wish to create confusion let's be clear Israeli Arabs are citizens of Israel and Palestinians are not, this may well be the reason for the results in your much touted polls you see Israeli Arabs are loyal to the country of their birth, the one which they are citizens of and despite the very common prejudice against them in that country, a recently posted poll from 2007 showed almost half 47% of Israeli Jews want Israeli Arabs "encouraged" to leave the country, they much like American Blacks who during the Jim Crow years remained loyal to the US, remain loyal citizens of Israel
In short you are speaking of two distinctly separate groups and it seems attempting to conflate them in order to prove some point
