Americans are dissatisfied with US support for Israel as its war on Gaza approaches its third month, and the Israeli military faces increasing accusations of disproportionately targeting civilians in the Gaza Strip, according to a poll conducted by the prestigious American Quinnipiac University and published on Wednesday.

Meanwhile, support for aid to Ukraine remains broadly stable but declining among Republicans, the poll said.

“While the Israeli war effort continues to receive full support from the Republican Party, it is clear that Republican voters are losing patience with supporting Ukraine,” Tim Malloy, a polling analyst at the university, said in a statement seen by Jerusalem.

Malloy said that only 45 percent (45%) of voters surveyed say they support sending more military aid to Israel, a decline from last month when 54 percent expressed support for more military aid.

While the poll showed that Republicans still support providing more aid to the Israeli war effort, and a majority of voters still generally say that supporting Israel is in the interest of the United States, 58% of Democrats and 48% of independents said they oppose aid for the Israeli war on Gaza. . According to the poll, 60% of Hispanic voters and 56% of black voters do not agree to providing more military aid to Israel.

Sympathy for Israel also declined broadly, from 54% in November to 49% this month. Voters are also divided on whether Israel's response to the October 7 terrorist attacks was appropriate.

Since Hamas launched those attacks, the United States has become Israel's main ally in the international community, providing it unlimited military and political support in its quest to eliminate the Iranian-backed militant group in the Gaza Strip. But this stance has sparked violent reactions from Arab Americans and progressives in Within the country, as well as other countries that called for a ceasefire and condemned Israel for its conduct in the war.

“Increasing civilian casualties have led to accusations that the IDF is deliberately targeting hospitals, schools and other civilian facilities,” according to the survey.

Meanwhile, 55% of voters say they support providing aid to Ukraine as it repels the Russian invasion, even as the war effort falters and winter limits progress on the battlefield. But the partisan gap is wide, as 77% of Democrats and 51% of independents support providing more military aid to Ukraine, while 51% of Republicans oppose it. This comes as Congress tries to broker a settlement agreement that would allow aid to Ukraine and ensure greater funding for border security.

The Quinnipiac poll surveyed 1,647 registered voters across the country from December 14-18. The margin of error is 2.4 percentage points.
