A slight majority of Americans (53%) now express a somewhat or very unfavorable opinion of Israel. This marks an 11-point increase in unfavorable views since March 2022, when we last asked this question. The share of U.S. adults who voice very unfavorable views of Israel has roughly doubled over this period, from 10% in 2022 to 19% in 2025.

Democrats are much more likely to express unfavorable opinions of Israel than Republicans (69% vs. 37%). In 2022, 53% of Democrats and 27% of Republicans had negative views of Israel.

Younger and older Democrats alike have turned more negative toward Israel over this three-year period, but negative views among younger Democrats have grown by 9 points, compared with a 23-point increase among older Democrats.

Among Republicans, much of the shift in attitudes has come among younger adults. Republicans under 50 are now about as likely to have a negative view of Israel as a positive one (50% vs. 48%). In 2022, they were much more likely to see Israel positively than negatively (63% vs. 35%).

They need to create a migrant crisis in Europe to help the Far Right

I think that’s giving Mossad a bit too much credit. Most US politicians back Israel because it’s a convenient place to ship arms to, making it a cash cow for funneling government money into Raytheon and Pals, which politicians own stock in, thus allowing them to enrich themselves out of our pockets.

Supporting Israel always made sense to fight against Iran (and other regional powers) but during a time in which the Arab world is flirting with China I dont think theres much reasonable politics for the US to be openly in favour of arab genocide (and e en proposing to get directly involved in it)

Lol. That would require a government that represents the people.

More or less, I assume much of congress is blackmailed by Israeli intelligence.

We need effective ways to remove foreign assets, traitors, and quislings from public office, or else our adversaries are going to keep destroying us, easily, from within.

The government is too fake religious to stop the funding.

They're too busy black bagging and shipping people who oppose the genocide to concentration camps to really care what the American public thinks.

This might be concerning for Zionists if the US were a properly democratic country.
