Unfortunately 80% of the country wants us to continue our support of Israel or to do even more. I agree with you, but we are the minority.

    Not even remotely true that the number is even close to that high

    It's not. And when Trump beats Biden, you can thank the DNC for sitting on their ass all year :)...

    If Trump wins it's not going to be because of foreign policy. The US economy is probably going to be the top issue by far.

    According to the average undecided voter? The President. Biden could very well lose the election simply because eggs are expensive.

    If Trump beats Biden things won't improve for Muslims anywhere.

    Anyway... tankie accelerationists are a very small minority of the electorate and probably wouldn't vote even if Biden did everything they wanted.

    Lmao you underestimate the religious people in this country. Sure we have Muslims but they are far outnumbered by Christians. Christianity is a bloodthirsty religion. Their whole religion involved taking from others outside of their group. Their rules applied only to others like themselves, it was totally fine to fuck over other people. The other people are people who equate anti Israel to antisemitism and dont want to be accused of such things.

    Anecdotally, I can say this. I live in red country. Everyone I talk to is unconditional about supporting Israel.

    Still though, I think if Trump were to come out tomorrow and condemn Israel and back Palestine, they’d all shit themselves, go home and change their pants, and then still vote for Trump. Seriously,

    Ok. Well I'm an American Jew who's been to Israel twice, and have been taught my entire life that it's the promised land, and I say they're currently war criminals.

    Another American Jew here. I have never been to Israel, I don't want to go to Israel and I do not support Israel, its apartheid or its genocide.

    Perhaps they're referring to this: https://news.gallup.com/poll/548084/americans-divided-involvement-middle-east.aspx

    But I think the phrasing is a bit vague here.

    Roughly four in 10 each say the U.S. is doing “about the right amount” (41%) or “not enough” (39%), while about two in 10 (19%) think the U.S. is doing “too much.”

    It could be that those 39% think that US should be doing more to hinder Israel.
