Israel's US Support Base Shows Cracks as Democrats Grow More Critical and Republicans Show Age Divide, Po

U.S. support for Israel has sharply eroded after decades of broad bipartisan backing, with Democrats increasingly critical of the longtime ally and younger Republicans showing signs of unease, according to a new poll.

Poll Shows Growing Doubts Over Israel’s War

A fresh AP-NORC poll survey released on Tuesday found that about one-third of U.S. adults, including roughly half of Democrats, believe Israel has committed genocide against Palestinians during the war in Gaza.

Israel and the U.S. government have strongly denied the accusation, which some human rights groups have leveled against Israel. About 2 in 10 Americans said Israel has not committed genocide, while roughly half said they did not know enough to say.

The poll also found similar divisions among Jewish adults. About 30% said Israel has committed genocide, while 49% said it has not. The AP-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research surveyed 3,040 U.S. adults from June 11 to 17, including 1,022 Jewish adults, using its probability-based AmeriSpeak Panel.
