- New US poll shows growing opposition to military aid for ‘Israel’ and US military action against Iran.
- Support for additional aid has dropped sharply compared with polling conducted in late 2023.
A new opinion poll conducted by The New York Times and Siena College has revealed declining public support in the United States for military aid to ‘Israel’ and for potential US military involvement in a war with Iran.
The survey, which polled 1,507 registered voters, found that only 30 percent support US military action against Iran, while 64 percent oppose it.
The poll also found that 57 percent of respondents oppose continued US military aid to ‘Israel’, compared with 37 percent who said they support such assistance.
The findings point to a notable shift in public sentiment as regional tensions continue to escalate and criticism grows over ‘Israel’s’ military actions in the Gaza Strip.
The latest figures mark a significant decline compared with polling conducted in November 2023, shortly after the start of ‘Israel’s’ war on Gaza.
At that time, a survey by Quinnipiac University found that just over 51 percent of US voters supported sending additional military aid to ‘Israel’.
The poll underscores shifting attitudes among US voters toward Washington’s role in Middle East conflicts, particularly as concerns mount over the humanitarian toll of the war in Gaza and the risk of broader regional escalation involving Iran.
