Asher Arian, a professor who wrote about the findings, said it was the first survey on security issues since 1985 to show a majority supporting a withdrawal from Lebanon.
Seventy percent believe that a solution to Lebanon can be found without giving up any of the Golan Heights, and 72 percent believe that the security zone can be used as a bargaining chip in talks with Syria.
A similar poll conducted in 1998 found that when asked what effect a withdrawal from Lebanon would have on the peace process, 35 percent felt it might move it forward, compared with 51 percent today.
