Pew Survey Finds Americans Growing More Critical of Israel’s Leadership and Gaza Campaign

The late-September poll concluded before this week’s U.S.-brokered peace plan announcement.

Overview

  • Fifty-nine percent hold an unfavorable view of the Israeli government, up from 51% in early 2024.
  • Thirty-nine percent say Israel is going too far in its military operation, rising from 31% a year earlier and 27% in late 2023.
  • More disapprove than approve of the Trump administration’s handling of the conflict, 42% to 30%, with 36% saying Trump favors Israelis too much.
  • A third say the U.S. gives too much military aid to Israel, while 35% say humanitarian aid to Palestinians is insufficient.
  • About eight in ten express concern about starvation in Gaza, Palestinian civilian deaths, and the fate of remaining Israeli hostages, with sharp partisan and age divides across measures.
