A Gallup survey indicates a historic disparity: 83% of \u2062Republicans hold a positive view\u200c of Israel compared \u2062too only 33% of Democrats,marking a 50-point gap,which is a \u2063notable increase from \u2064a 30-point difference the previous\u2063 year.

Additionally, there was never a nation of Palestine that the Jews supposedly dispossessed.<\/p>\n<p>Further, many Arabs <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cfr.org\/backgrounder\/what-know-about-arab-citizens-israel\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">live in<\/a> the pre-1967 borders of Israel.

That hardly sounds like an <a href=\"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/fact-check-israel-colonized-apartheid-state\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">apartheid state<\/a>.

It&rsquo;s Hamas who has disregarded the lives of the residents of Gaza by locating their missile sites among them and launching the Oct. 7 attacks in the first place.<\/p>\n<p>It&rsquo;s time for Jewish Democrats to wake up: the party they once knew has changed.

A recent Gallup poll revealed that 83% of Republicans hold a favorable view of Israel, while only 33% of Democrats do. Additionally, just 48% of independents view the country positively. The 50-point difference between Republican and Democratic support for Israel surpasses last year&#8217;s record by 20 points due to a significant decline in Democratic approval. This gap is nearly three times larger than the average difference observed from 2001 to 2023, during which Republicans consistently viewed Israel more favorably than Democrats.<\/p>\n<p>Gallup also noted that this year marks the first instance where any political group has majority unfavorable ratings towards Israel, with 60% of Democrats expressing such views. However, this shift hasn&#8217;t drastically changed voting patterns among American Jews; President Trump received 33% of their votes in November while Vice President Harris garnered 66%. The October Hamas attack on Israel has notably influenced opinions about both the Jewish State and anti-Semitism within the U.S., with a survey indicating that 77% of American Jews feel less safe since those events.<\/p>\n<p>Moreover, nearly six out of ten American Jews reported changing their behavior due to fears about antisemitism\u2014a rise from previous years\u2014and an overwhelming majority believe antisemitism has increased since the attacks. Protests against Israel occurring nationwide often exhibit strong anti-Semitic sentiments.<\/p>\n<p>Messianic Rabbi Jonathan Bernis emphasized that anti-Zionism is intrinsically linked to anti-Semitism and highlighted misconceptions about Israeli policies fueling hatred against Jews. He pointed out historical connections between Jewish people and the land of Israel while refuting claims regarding apartheid or genocide by Israelis against Palestinians.<\/p>\n<p>In conclusion, he urged Jewish Democrats to recognize that their party&#8217;s stance has shifted towards being increasingly anti-Zionist and potentially anti-Semitic<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":2409461,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_mo_disable_npp":"","fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Palestine.jpg","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[33651],"tags":[5212,3933,4671,40570,5894],"class_list":["post-2409460","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-the-western-journal","tag-anti-semitism","tag-dems","tag-israel","tag-jewish-democrats","tag-politics"],"fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Palestine.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2409460","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2409460"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2409460\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2409464,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2409460\/revisions\/2409464"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2409461"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2409460"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2409460"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2409460"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
