Almost 40% Of Democrats Support Hamas Over Israel
American Thinker ^ | 06/05/2026 | Joseph Ford Cotto |

Recent polling, conducted by the venerable Harris organization for Harvard University, reveals a stark and troubling fault line across American public opinion.

In the Israel-Hamas conflict, more than seven in 10 Americans stand with Israel, with the strongest backing coming from older citizens and Republican voters. Yet among Democrats, support for Hamas reaches a disturbing 36 percent. For young adults aged 18 to 24, 54% actually side with Hamas over Israel.

This is not a minor disagreement. It represents a serious national emergency.

Nearly four in 10 Democrats aligning with a terrorist group against the Middle East’s only thriving democracy signals something rotten at the core of today’s progressive movement. The hatred directed at Israel serves as a stand-in for broader resentment toward the values that built American strength: self-reliance, innovation, Western heritage, and the right of a free people to defend themselves.

That these free people are generally white, and fighting to preserve a first-world nation built by pioneers, further enrages leftists.

The evidence of this is overwhelming.

Since the horrors of October 7, 2023, antisemitic incidents have exploded across the United States. The Anti-Defamation League recorded a record 9,354 incidents in 2024, up from the already shocking total the year before. A majority of these involved anti-Israel or anti-Zionist elements, many tied directly to rallies organized by groups like Students for Justice in Palestine and the Party for Socialism and Liberation.

Campus incidents alone jumped 84 percent, turning universities into hostile environments for Jewish students.

Hamas would cut the throats of 80% of Democrats because the remaining 20% are muzzies.

I live in NY State and have spoken to many Jews. American Jews don’t vote based on Israel.

They vote based on the same domestic issues they’ve prioritized for 100 years — and those issues align more with Democrats than Republicans.

Polling consistently shows that Israel ranks near the bottom of voting priorities for most American Jews — often below health care, the economy, abortion, and social welfare.

That's because the Democrat Party is run by the spirit of antichrist.

I think the majority of those Dems claiming to ‘support’ Hamas need to be educated on exactly who Hamas is and what they do to maintain control of the Palestianians.

“It represents a serious national emergency.”

The list of things that need to be addressed in this country is long and varied. The Murderous Muzzie invasion as part of open borders, this along with the MSM, a totally worthless Congress and Senate and the left in general has put us in this precarious situation.

This is a fact. Yet people here on FR always think it is the opposite.

Most Jews in America are leftists.

The Democrats have morphed into a criminal organization who’ve replaced God with ridiculous “causes” and Satan with all things patriotic. They are more united by hatred of what’s right and good than love of anything, America herself being last on the list if included at all.

Assistant Democrat Thune must be replaced as Senate leader with a conservative who puts our nation’s survival above both parties - the one he feigns to be in or the one he’s actually serving.
