60% of Americans Now Hold Unfavorable Views Toward Israel, Pew Finds

A new Pew Research survey reveals that 60% of Americans now harbor unfavorable views toward Israel, a dramatic shift driven by the Lebanon strikes and the perceived entanglement of U.S. military operations with Israeli objectives. The finding represents a historic low in American public support for the Jewish state and cuts across both partisan and demographic lines. The polling data adds domestic political pressure to an administration already navigating a fragile ceasefire and fracturing conservative coalition.
