Majority of Americans disapprove of Israel’s military operations in Gaza

Fifty-five percent of Americans oppose Israel’s military action in Gaza, compared with just 36 percent who approve, according to a new survey by US-based pollster Gallup.

This is a major shift from November, when half of Americans approved of Israel’s operations in Gaza, while 45 percent disapproved, Gallup found.

Americans belonging to both major political parties have grown more critical of Israel’s operations over the past four months.

  • Approval of Israel’s actions among Democrats has decreased by 18 percent, while approval among Republicans has dropped 7 percent, the polls show.

The change in US public opinion comes as the US government more openly expresses its frustration with its ally Israel.
