"Six in 10 Americans have a negative view of Israel, and a majority of those under 50 in both major parties view Israel as well as its prime minister, Benjamin Netanyahu, negatively."
"After the brutal Gaza war, a large percentage of liberal-leaning Generation Z considers Israel a pariah state."

"American Jews are under attack from liberal and progressive activists who are stridently anti-Zionist, anti-Israel, and in some cases anti-Semitic."
The relationship between the United States and Israel is facing significant challenges, with 60% of Americans holding negative views of Israel. Younger voters, particularly those under 50, view Israel and Prime Minister Netanyahu unfavorably. The Gaza war has intensified perceptions of Israel as a pariah state among liberal Generation Z. Democratic candidates are distancing themselves from Israel, with many opposing military aid. This shift has led to increased hostility toward Jews, as anti-Semitic tropes resurface. Netanyahu's alignment with Trump has deepened the divide with the Democratic Party, posing risks for American Jews.
