CNN anchor Christiane Amanpour is one of the most vicious Israel-haters on cable news television. In a recent interview with the former Israeli ambassador to France, Amanpour claimed, “the latest polls from the Palestinian side also show that they want a peaceful, two-state solution to co-exist with you.” Amanpour is once again lying about the Israel-Palestinian conflict with these fabricated polls. And at a time when Palestinian terrorism and incitement against Israelis is skyrocketing. When will CNN fire this bigot?
Among the polls CAMERA cites debunking Amanpour’s claim are:
• A December 2022 poll by the Ramallah-based Palestinian Center for Policy and Survey Research (PCPSR) that found only 32% of Palestinians support a two-state solution;
• A July 2022 poll by the Palestinian organization Jerusalem Media & Communication Center (JMCC) that found 26% of Palestinians prefer a two-state solution.
• June 2022 polling data from the Washington Institute for Near East Policy (TWI) that found only 37% of Gazans and 25% of West Bank Palestinians would “definitely accept” or “probably accept” the concept of “two states for two peoples.”
• An August 2021 poll from the Ramallah-based Arab World for Research & Development (AWRD) that found only 36% of Palestinians support a two-state solution.
Under President Abbas, the Palestinian Authority has paid $1 billion to terrorists and their families.
$1,000,000,000 to incentivize terrorism instead of building a sustainable Palestinian economy and infrastructure.

Last week, CNN anchor Christiane Amanpour interviewed former Israeli ambassador to France Yael German.
“I want to know from you, as a diplomat, is there any hope for anything resembling negotiations on a two-state solution, given that the settlements and the settlement-believers are emboldened by now their backers who are in government?” asked Amanpour, displaying an attitude toward the Jewish state that has earned her consistent accusations of anti-Israel bias.
