Abstract
The percentage of those boycotting in the last Israeli elections forms, from our perspective, the most important general development in Israeli politics, and specifi cally in the political behaviour of the Palestinians in Israel. This article is an in depth analysis of the meaning of this development and its meanings for the Palestinians in Israel and their future. We believe it is important to present this study as an introduction to the situation of the indigenous Palestinian community in Israel, and their tendency to rethink their present and future political options. Our conclusions may contradict the claim which has been and is being presented by Israeli and Palestinian researchers that the Palestinians in Israel have decided their future as Israeli citizens a long time ago.
