A survey by Gallup reveals that all three major party groups in the US have become more disapproving of "Israel’s" aggression on Gaza compared to their previous stance in November.

According to a March 1-20 survey by Gallup regarding Americans' current position on "Israeli military action in Gaza," despite many approving "Israel’s actions in Gaza" in November, Americans now do not back this aggression by a "solid margin", as 55% percent disapprove of "Israel’s" aggression in comparison to 36% who approve of it.

As for keeping up with the news regarding the Israeli war on Gaza, 74% of US adults said that they are following the news closely, slightly higher than the 72% Gallup indicated in November, while only one-third of Americans (34%) said that they are following the situation "very closely."    

The poll added that all three major party groups in the US have become more disapproving of "Israel’s" aggression on Gaza compared to their previous stance in November, as the percentage has decreased by 18% in approval among both Democrats and Independents, and by 7.5% among Republicans.

Independents have moved from being divided in their views on the Israeli aggression to opposing it, and Democrats, who were already largely disapproving in November, are even more so now, with 18% approving and 75% disapproving, Gallup stressed.

However, Republicans still approve of "Israel’s" war on Gaza, with a decrease in those approving from 71% to 64%.

Biden's approval rate is in decline

Biden’s approval rate regarding his handling of the war is at 27%, which is his lowest among the five issues tested in the survey.

Gallup clarified that is due to far fewer Democrats (47%) approving of how he is dealing with the "situation in the Middle East" compared to their approval of how he is handling the economy, the environment, energy policy, and foreign affairs, broadly as on those matters no less than 66% of Democrats approve of Biden.

Further on his approval regarding how he is dealing with the "situation in the Middle East" just 21% of independents and 16% of Republicans approve of his performance, Gallup added.

However, according to Gallup, it seems that the "Middle East conflict" has not gravely impacted Biden's political position as his overall job approval rating is 40%, compared with 37% in October and November surveys adding that it is probably because of "Americans' greater confidence in the U.S. economy."

American youth favoring Palestinian views over Israeli in media: Poll

A new opinion poll by the Pew Research Center on March 21 revealed that young Americans have increasingly more favorable views of Palestinians than they do of Israelis amid the war on Gaza. 

60% of Americans aged 18-29 had positive views of Palestinian people, while 46% preferred Israelis. On the other hand, 46% of young American adults see "Israel's" aggression on Gaza as unacceptable, compared to 21% who believed otherwise.

Young Americans have been at the forefront of mass protests across the US to protest President Joe Biden’s support for "Israel's" genocide campaign, which has now killed over 32,000 Palestinians.

A poll from The New York Times/Siena College back in December revealed that half of the American youth see "Israel" as intentionally killing civilians in Gaza.  

Still, a Pew poll found that 48% of Americans were not aware of how many Palestinians have been killed after over 5 months have passed since the beginning of the war.
