 🚨📊 American Support For Israel Hits Record Low—New Poll📉

New polling from Gallup has found support for Israel among Americans has hit “the lowest in 25 years” of the company’s annual tracking—well below 50 percent—as sympathy towards Palestinians has continued a steady upward trend.

The U.S. has proven Israel’s staunchest ally since the October 7, supporting Israel even against seeming overwhelming pressure in the United Nations. The U.S. used its veto power on the Security Council to knock back resolutions, arguing that the resolutions must require the release of hostages taken by Hamas.

The issue hit home throughout the conflict, with protests at college campuses across the country that drew headlines for their occasional clashes between protesters and counter-protesters or police. Antisemitic incidents and sentiments also rose not only in the U.S. but in Europe as well.

The newest polling from Gallup found support for Israel among American adults dropped to 46 percent in 2025, dipping below 50 percent for the first time during the time Gallup has tracked this topic—which appears to be since 2001.

At the same time, support for Palestinians has risen to 33 percent, breaking 30 percent for just the second time in that period. The first spike occurred in 2023, but sentiment dropped in 2024 before jumping back up again.

The latest polling took place between February 3 and 16 during the temporary ceasefire and hostage exchange between Israel and Hamas that started in January. The poll also found 40 percent of American adults support Trump’s handling of the situation.

Support broadly follows party lines, with Republicans more likely to support Israel and Democrats more likely to support Palestinians: Democrats have 59 percent support for Palestinians versus 21 percent support for Israel, while Republicans have 75 percent support for Israel versus 10 percent support for Palestinians.

The independent support roughly lines up with the overall average, with 42 percent for Israel and 34 percent for Palestinians.

A key finding, however, is that the majority of Democrats and independents support an independent Palestinian state, with Republican support hovering a little under majority support: Around 76 percent of Democrats, 53 percent of independents and 41 percent of Republicans support an independent Palestinian state.

The Republican support had been at that level prior to October 7, 2023, with support dropping to around 25 percent in 2024, but that support has rebounded in 2025.
