Could we get a better source than fucking trtworld?
Among younger Americans, and along political lines, divisions are more prominent. Almost half of those surveyed aged 18-29, 49%, say Israel is committing genocide, with 24% disagreeing and 27% uncertain.

I said in another thread that the pro-Israel lobby clearly doesn't understand just how badly this "war" is costing Israel politically. You can't go murdering tens of thousands of people and starving hundreds of thousands more, from a position of impunity, and then expect that people won't care. If Israeli leadership like Netanyahu and Gvir aren't held accountable for the genocide they're enacting, either internationally or internally, Israel is going to come to be defined by their actions.
