One of the most notable findings was the generational divide. Among Americans under 30, 58% expressed a favorable view of Palestinians, compared with 32% who viewed Israelis favorably. Older Americans, however, continued to express more favorable views of Israelis.
The poll reflects a broader shift in the American political landscape as the war in Gaza continues to influence public opinion, policy debates, and the 2026 election cycle. Analysts say these changing attitudes could have long-term implications for U.S. foreign policy and America’s relationship with Israel and Palestine.
