Poll in the USA: The older you are, the more you support Israel

The majority of Americans say they support Israel, according to a new survey from Harvard CAPS-Harris Poll shared with The Hill on Monday. 

Eighty percent of voters said they supported Israel amid its ongoing war with Hamas, a Palestinian militant group that the US labels a terror organization. However, the polling showed the percentage of support for Israel increasing by age group.

Fifty-five percent of 18- to 24-year-olds said they supported Israel, while 65 percent of 25- to 34-year-olds said the same. Seventy-five percent of 35- to 44-year-olds said they supported Israel, and 95 percent of voters older than 65 years old said the same.

“When asked the clear question on whether voters support Israel or Hamas, Americans give a clear answer that they support Israel and proposed congressional aid,” said Mark Penn, the co-director of the Harvard CAPS/Harris Poll.

“They also support four-hour pauses and other help to those in Gaza but believe Israel has the right to continue its campaign unless hostages are released.”

Older Americans received sound educations in learning facts and critical thinking.  younger Americans were indoctrinated by anti-Western subversive professors.

We baby boomers know the horrors our great-grandparents and grandparents suffered. Too many know what their parents suffered. We can’t let their suffering and the deaths of those killed by Natzis be

Israel must continue the war and rid itself of all terrorists. Israel is a brave country with a great future.
