A new opinion poll shows the Israeli regime is losing support among the
American public as more US citizens question Tel Aviv's commitment to
peace.
American public as more US citizens question Tel Aviv's commitment to
peace.
The survey presented to Israeli leaders last week was conducted by pollster and strategist Stanley Greenberg and sponsored by America's
pro-Israeli organization, the Israel Project, Ha'aretz reported on Thursday.
The opinion poll revealed the number of Americans who think the US needs to support Israel dropped to 51 percent in July from 58 percent in
June and 63 percent in August 2009.
On Tel Aviv's commitment to peace, only 45 percent of Americans surveyed in July said they felt Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin
Netanyahu was committed to the Middle East peace process.
Meanwhile, 39 percent responded that Netanyahu and his administration are not committed to seeking peace with the Palestinians.
The finding is a serious challenge for the rightist Netanyahu as a late 2007 poll indicated that 66 percent of American respondents
believed the Israeli administration, then led by his predecessor Ehud
Olmert, was committed to peace.
Conducting similar surveys in European countries, Greenberg said the data reflects the worst time for Israel with regard to German public
opinion since 2008.
In Germany, 50 percent of the respondents said they had "very cold" or unfavorable feelings toward Israel, compared with 39 percent who said
they experienced "cold" or "very cold" feelings toward Palestinians.
In Sweden, the situation was similar to that in Germany, with 49 percent saying their feelings toward Israel were "cold" or "very cold."
In France, those sympathizing with Israel did not go beyond 24 percent and the number, though narrowly, was outweighed by 31 percent
who said that felt "cold" or "very cold" feelings toward it.
