Exclusive: Rasmussen Poll Shows 2/3 of Americans Oppose Ceasefire Against Hamas
Breitbart ^ | November 8th, 2023 | Joel B. Pollak

Posted on 11/08/2023 12:56:30 PM PST by Mariner

A new poll set to be released Wednesday by Rasmussen Reports shows that over two-thirds of likely U.S. voters oppose a ceasefire against the Palestinian terror group Hamas in Gaza.

In a survey of 995 respondents from Oct. 31 to Nov. 2, with a 3% margin of error and a 95% level of confidence, the poll asked: “Benjamin Netanyahu is Prime Minister of Israel. In a speech this week, Netanyahu said: ‘Calls for a ceasefire are calls for Israel to surrender to Hamas, to surrender to terrorism, to surrender to barbarism. That will not happen.’ Do you agree or disagree?”

In response, 49% said they “strongly agree” and 19% said that they “somewhat agree.” Only 11% said that they “somewhat disagree,” and 10% said that they “strongly disagree.” A further 10% were “not sure.”

In total, 68% agreed and 21% disagreed.

Democrat’s media Apparatchiks are desperately working to bring that number down.

I’m strongly in favor of a cease fire, once Hamas is gone.

That means 2/3 of congress would show their disapproval. Would it matter?

These terrorist supporters are everywhere. I drove by a Free Palestine yard sign today. My county is being over run with moron leftists. Yesterday’s County Commissioners election saw a Republican incumbent lose to a Democrat. Now there’s a 2 to 1 Democrat majority. It makes zero sense to me. County property taxes have not been raised in 27 years. I bet that ends very quickly and a lot of unnecessary spending and programs.

The MSM must be slipping. The poll should be the reverse of what it actually says. Regardless, it’s Trump’s fault and they need to bring another dozen baseless charges against him.

Israel was on the cusp of peace with the Saudis. Whatever gets them back to that point, and replicating the success of the Abraham Accords is likely their best option. If that means a cease fire with Hamas, then fine.

I feel they’re being played by the Iranians, who had everything to lose from an Israeli-Saudi diplomatic relationship. They could spend years fighting a proxy ground war against Iran.

Yep. There must be no ceasefire. It would be like demanding a Ceasefire on Dec 8 1941.

Uhhh no.

The aggressors are not going to be left in power. They’ve got an asswhooping coming and they’re going to get it - good and hard - in front of God and everyone.

Pretty much what Israel is trying to do, pound Hamas hard and long enough so that they’ll cease firing. Dead Hamas will most definitely cease firing.

Saudi Arabia said there’s still for a peace plan, but they’re going to wait until after the war.

So am I. But when I say “Gone” I mean 6ft. under, not just evacuated from the area.

I'm willing to talk to the survivors.
  1. Drive them into the tunnels, then
  2. Seal every entrance and exit, then
  3. Pump them full of napalm, then
  4. Light it off.

After this, begin negotiations with the survivors.

This reminds me of the Netanya Passover massacre 20 years ago. Right on the eve of Arab League negotiations with Israel, which were to include Saudi Arabia, Hamas murders a bunch of people and destroys a peace plan. Every time Israel gets close, Iran swoops in to stop it by making the Israelis react.

The public gets it, just like they did after 9/11.

The state department antisemites are a lost cause.
