this poll flies in the face of the members of 'our' government and their actions;


A new Pew poll found that most Americans view the Israeli government unfavorably, feel that Trump is favoring Israel too much, and only 27% of Americans under 30 view Israel’s government favorably…

Despite consistently pro-Israel U.S. media coverage, a new Pew poll found that most Americans view the Israeli government unfavorably. According to the poll, “Fewer than half (41%) have a favorable view of the Israeli government; a larger share (51%) views the government unfavorably.
In addition, the poll found that about five times more Americans feel that Trump is favoring the Israelis too much than believe he is favoring Palestinians too much.
According to the survey, Americans 65 and older “are the only age group in which a majority (57%) have a favorable view of the government. Among the youngest adults (those younger than 30), just 27% view Israel’s government favorably.”
The poll found that among Republicans, Evangelical Protestants (which include all races) are more likely than non-evangelicals to express a favorable opinion of Israel’s government.
In recent years, however, support among evangelical Christians has been slipping.
A journalist reporting in 2012 about the “the largest gathering of young evangelical leaders in America” stated: “In dozens of random conversations, I noted that Millenials … expressed solidarity with the Palestinians and annoyance with Israel. This is a seismic shift in the American church and a serious threat to Israel’s one traditional area of support.”........https://israelpalestinenews.org/poll-finds-only-41-of-americans-view-israeli-government-favorably/
