I see the article says 75% of Israelis would feel safer if they 'knew for certain' that Israel has nuclear weapons. Is it not about time the rest of us knew as well?

The REAL Napster

The survey - conducted jointly at the end of July by the Simons Foundation and Angus Reid Strategies - was answered by adults in six countries and showed that 37% of Israelis believed the use of nuclear weapons to prevent a war would be justified, while 35% believed the weapons could be justifiably used during a war.

What math class did these guys goto? 37% OR 35% is NOT a majority! And these questions are separate so the answers can not be combined! Yet another misleading clipmarks title.

Question 6a of the survey provided the two responses in question as two alternatives out of four. 37 + 35 = 72
