US Voters Split on Israel Aid, Many Say Genocide Is Occurring
Recent polling indicates a record high opposition to sending more military aid to Israel among U.S. voters, with 60% now opposing such aid. This increase in opposition, the highest since November 2023, is accompanied by a growing belief among Americans that Israel is committing genocide in Gaza. The findings highlight a significant disparity between public opinion and the actions of political officials, as Democrats continue to face scrutiny over their policies regarding Israel, as seen in the DNC’s rejection of a resolution supporting an arms embargo. Sympathy for Palestinians over Israelis has also reached an all-time high, further reflecting the shift in public sentiment.
