A Gallup survey released Wednesday shows that U.S. public support for Israel's military assault on Gaza has plummeted since November, with the decline particularly sharp among Democratic voters whom President Joe Biden will need to turn out to win reelection against presumptive GOP nominee Donald Trump.
adults say they are following developments in Gaza 'closely.' Political analyst Yousef Munayyer wrote on social media that 'Biden's policy of continued support for Israel's war on Gaza is in line with the views of the right-wing Republicans,' noting that 64% of GOP voters still approve of the Israeli assault—down slightly from 71% in November.
