'Not superficial': Support for Palestinians in US surpasses sympathy for Israelis

For the first time in 24 years of polling, American sympathies for Palestinians have surpassed those for Israelis, according to a new Gallup poll. The survey found 41 percent of Americans sympathize with Palestinians compared to 36 percent for Israelis, a shift observed across all age groups and driven significantly by independent voters. This change is attributed to Israel's military actions in Gaza and decades of Palestinian outreach efforts. Analysts view this as a significant development, warning that the Democratic party's pro-Israel stance is alienating its voter base, a conclusion supported by a leaked autopsy of the 2024 presidential election.
