In the latest Quinnipiac University poll of registered voters in the U.S., half of them now say Israel is committing genocide in Gaza, a record high. Quinnipiac surveyed 1,276 such voters Sept. 18-21 and reported several related findings.
There has been a dramatic drop in those who think backing Israel is in the national interest of the U.S. It has gone from 69% “Yes” in December 2023 to 47% now (with the “No” response climbing from 23% to 41%). Now, Israel’s Prime Minister Netanyahu gets a 21% favorable rating, with 49% finding him unfavorable. And on U.S. President Donald Trump’s handling of the Gaza war, his support is down to 31% (with 56% disapproving).
