More young Americans, between the ages of 18 and 29, are friendly to the Palestinians and their state, according to a recent Harvard Kennedy School Institute of Politics surveys.
A greater proportion of the population supports the Palestinians ( 56 % ) over the Israelis ( 52 % ) and the Palestinian government ( 32 % ), which is supported by the terrorist organization Hamas ( 32 ).
By a margin of 11 % more young voters, they also think Hamas ‘ attack on October 7 was unjustifiable. When political party is applied, 30 pct more Democrats think Israel’s answer was not warranted, whereas 20 percent more Republicans believe it was.
By a five-to-one margin ( 51-10 percent ), young voters favor a “permanent ” ceasefire between Hamas and Israel. After being informed that Hamas is an “Islamist militant group, ” 7 % of the population “expressed sympathy ” with Hamas, but this percentage dropped to 13 %. ”
Ironically, as noted by The Crimson, “only 38 percentage of young Americans said they followed the news about the continuing conflict in Gaza strongly, but the number rises to 45 percent among registered voters. ”
