Most US voters back Israel, oppose Gaza ceasefire: poll
Level of support for Israel differs among Republicans and DemocratsBy Michael Gryboski, Mainline Church Editor.
A majority of voters in the U.S. say they support Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and oppose the idea of a ceasefire between Israel and Hamas as the war between the two continues, according to a new poll.
The majority of those polled said they view Netanyahu favourably, and more than two-thirds agree with the Israeli prime minister’s rejection of calls for a ceasefire in Gaza.
Weeks into the war between Israel and the Islamic terrorist group, some political groups and religious organizations have called for a ceasefire in response to the carnage inflicted on the Gaza Strip’s civilian population as Hamas refuses to allow civilians to relocate to safety.
