US Poll: 50% of US adults say Israel ‘gone too far’ in war on Gaza
A poll from The Associated Press-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research shows 31 percent of US adults approve of Biden’s handling of the war on Gaza.
Half of US adults now believe Israel’s military offensive has gone beyond what it should have, the poll found. That’s up from 40 percent in an AP-NORC poll conducted in November.
The survey also shows about half of US adults are “extremely or very concerned” the war will lead to a broader conflict in the Middle East.
The US has become increasingly isolated in its support of Israel as the Palestinian death toll has risen above 27,000 with two-thirds of the victims women and children.
Fracture lines are growing in Biden’s Democratic base with some key voting blocs he will likely need if he’s going to win a second term unhappy with his handling of the conflict.
