Overview

  • A July Gallup poll finds just 32% of Americans back Israel’s operations in Gaza while 60% now disapprove, marking the lowest approval since the war began.
  • Fifty-two percent of respondents view Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu unfavorably—his worst Gallup rating since the 1990s—as the ICC’s arrest warrant for war crimes remains in effect.
  • Approval among Democrats stands at 8% and among independents at 25%, contrasted with 71% support from Republicans, highlighting widening partisan divides.
  • Only 9% of voters aged 18 to 34 across all parties support the Gaza offensive, reflecting deep generational opposition linked to high civilian death tolls.
  • Progressive Democrats are pushing to curb military aid and prominent Republicans are voicing unease over the humanitarian crisis, intensifying congressional debates on supplemental funding.
