Palestinian sources said they believe some "political elements" sent the youngsters to threaten Shikaki.
"Someone sent them and provoked them. They had no way of knowing what was the real outcome of the survey," one eyewitness said.
Palestinian officials condemned the attack on Shikaki, but one official said that, "As long as there is no law and order and no better atmosphere, it is the wrong time to raise the issue. In this environment, no one can protect those who raise this sensitive issue," he said.
Al-Quds University president Sari Nusseibeh, the most prominent Palestinian to state that Palestinians must give up on the "right of return," was attacked by Fatah activists in Ramallah for making the statements and lost a lot of popularity for simply raising the issue.
He continues to lobby for the idea, reasoning that only by breaking the taboo against discussing the controversial issue will Palestinians be able to deal with it.
While Fatah and other Palestinian factions reject any compromise over the issue, refugees in Lebanon and Jordan have for a long time said that their dream is to return to a Palestinian state, not Israel proper.
Already in 1990, young Palestinian refugees in Lebanon told this reporter that their dream was to return to a Palestinian state and make a normal life there for themselves and their families.
"The polls reflect the thinking of the Palestinians, but do not determine politics... We continue to demand the right of return as part of a peace agreement," a PA source said. "Most Palestinians know that compensation and the return to the [future] state of Palestine, instead of Israel, is the practical solution [but] no one dares to say it publicly," he added.
