Pew Survey: Israelis View U.S. Policy as ‘Too Favorable’ Toward Israel
Yup, that’s a knock-out statistic from the just released Pew Global Attitudes Survey (full report and summary report) of international attitudes toward the U.S. and its international role and policies:
Even in Israel, a slim 42% plurality says America is too supportive of their country, while 13% say the U.S. favors the Palestinians too much and 37% say U.S. policies are fair.
So take that Republican Jewish Coalition when you attempt to paint the Democratic Party as “soft” on Israel because members polled found U.S. policy tilted toward Israel. Even Israelis believe this! And notably, vast majorities in almost every country polled agree that U.S. policy is overly favorable toward Israel–with the sole exception of the U.S. itself:
