Gallup Polls Mar. 2013 Americans' Sympathies for Israel Match All-Time High Republicans, conservatives, older Americans most likely to voice sympathy for Israel by Lydia Saad PRINCETON, NJ -- As President Barack Obama prepares to visit Israel, the Palestinian West Bank, and Jordan next week -- his first trip to the region as president -- Americans' sympathies lean heavily toward the Israelis over the Palestinians, 64% vs. 12%. Americans' partiality for Israel has consistently exceeded 60% since 2010; however, today's 64% ties the highest Gallup has recorded in a quarter century, last seen in 1991 during the Gulf War. At that time, slightly fewer than today, 7%, sympathized more with the Palestinians.
63. 500M TO KEEP THEM REFUGEES?
Iranian Jew ,   LA   (03.26.13)
Why? They will burn the flag again tomorrow. What is the point of this? EU, USA and the Arab League has created Palestine problems and not Israel.
64. # 62...don't believe everything you read..anti-Israel
Edithann ,   USA   (03.26.13)
feelings are at an all time 'high'. If it was true, Obama wouldn't have ordered Bibi to apologize to Turkey and give back Palestinian money.. Israel is a petulant bully with arms and no reason...I just hope Abbas will continue bringing Israel to the ICC and the UN.. Oh, I think you had better start saving for the reparations to Turkey..and then to the Palestinians...It's going to cost every Israelimucho dineros...... TATA
65. #54 Need to Understand
ltrail ,   United States   (03.26.13)
This news is disgusting. I will certainly inquire to my Representative.
66. $500 Million Given to a Non-Nation
ltrail ,   United States   (03.26.13)
Just minutes ago, I sent a message to my Representative to condemn the action by President Obama, using his Exectutive Order powers to bypass the House and authorizing monies to be sent to the so-called palestinians. The so-called palestinians are not a nation, do not have a government, are not even a unique group of people. Their DNA would likely demonstrate that they are from Syria, Jordan, Egypt, and who knows, where else.
67. U. S. giving huge amount of money to Palestine Authority
Ann ,   Williamsport   (03.27.13)
I find it hard to fathom just why we are giving such amount of money to this organization. I think it is time we invested in our own country's financial needs!!!
68. funding for palestinians
Joseph Yates ,   Springfield , Ky   (04.01.13)
How much of this money went for weapons ? We cannot keep giving money to these dictators who hate us and turn on a whim when we do something they don`t like . There will never be peace in the mideast because that is their blackmail chip and the left and our politicians use this gimmick to rob us blind .
69. ATTA BOY OBUMMY...THROW TAX PAYER MONEY TO WIND..
Esther ,   Selkirk Canada   (04.01.13)
