Some 59 percent of Israelis support Prime Minister Ariel Sharon's planned pullout from the Gaza Strip this year, according to a public opinion poll published on Friday. Thirty-two percent oppose the plan, ratified in October by the Israeli parliament, while the remaining nine percent expressed no view, according to the poll published in the daily Haaretz newspaper. Israelis, however, were less certain about the ability of the new Sharon government, sworn in on Monday, to implement the plan in the face of opposition from Jewish settlers, all of whose settlements in the Gaza Strip are to be closed, along with four isolated ones in the north of the West Bank.
