Snip:
A new poll released by Quinnipiac University on 24 September has revealed that support for Israel continues to drop significantly across the US.
Only 47 percent of US citizens believe that backing Israel is in Washington’s interest, the poll shows. Forty-one percent believe it is not, and 12 percent did not respond. This marks a drop from December 2023, when Quinnipiac polling showed that respondents supported Israel by a 69–23 margin.
The poll also found that 49 percent of US voters have a negative view of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. Only 21 percent hold positive views on the premier.
It also found that 56 percent of US voters disapprove of US President Donald Trump’s handling of the Gaza war.
I mean they’re wrong depending on how you define “national interest”
: “Israel is committing a horrible genocide and our government is in bed with them, sending our kids to war literally for fun and profit.”
: “The government is spending….the T-word!”
“over 50 percent of US citizens are satanically racist” is the real headline here
you already know ADL’s next headline?
What was the title if the study again, that showed that popular opinion on a topic doesn’t matter for US policy? Only when looking at high income groups there starts to be a correlation.
I don’t even want what’s in the US’s best interest, but I also don’t think supporting Israel is in the US’s best interest
This “unsinkable aircraft carrier” sure is taking on a lot of water, the pumps are expensive, fixing the leaks is gonna be even more expensive, and trying to maintain it is just pissing off everyone else on earth.
It would genuinely be more in the US’s interest to declare Israel a rogue terrorist state and launch an invasion. Relive the WW2 glory days. I honestly think that could prolong US hegemony by a couple decades.
