American sympathies in the Middle East have shifted dramatically toward the Palestinians, according to new Gallup polling, after decades of overwhelming support for the Israelis.

That shift accelerated during the war in Gaza. Three years ago, 54% of Americans sympathized more with the Israelis, compared to 31% for the Palestinians.

Now, their support is about evenly balanced, with 41% saying their sympathies lie more with the Palestinians, and only 36% saying the same about the Israelis.

    I probably should’ve included the word “basically” in my comment, though I do stand by what I said. You understand what Hamas is said to do on Oct 7th, and I compared it to the Holocaust because the Jews burned down their Reichstag building. Jews didn’t burn down the Reichstag building, the same way that Hamas didn’t kill all those Israelis on Oct 7th. The IDF carried out the Hannibal Directive, and killed their own people using Apache helicopters and tanks, and used that as reasoning the comitt a genocide against a semite population, much the same way the Germans did to the Jews during the Holocaust.
