Nearly half of 18- to 24-year-olds say they support Hamas; their responses are less out of line with other age cohorts when asked what should be done about the terror group.
America’s youngest adults continue to be an outlier in their views of Hamas and Israel, according to a poll released on Monday.
The Harvard/Harris poll for March found that 48% of American 18- to 24-year-olds say they support Hamas over the Jewish state, making them the only age demographic for which Israel did not enjoy at least double-digit support over the terrorist group in the Gaza Strip.
By contrast, 93% of Americans 65 and older say they support Israel compared to just 7% who say they support Hamas. Overall, 77% of Americans say they support Israel compared with 23% who say they support Hamas.
