“The nationwide poll released Thursday found 54 percent of those surveyed said their sympathies lie more with Israelis while 24 percent said their sympathies lie more with Palestinians.”

>>How is this “ more than half”

But among voters aged 18-34, sympathy for Israelis plunged from last month and shifted to Palestinians.

The poll found a slight majority, or 52 percent, said their sympathies lie more with the Palestinians, while 29 percent said Israelis. This is a significant reversal from October, when 41 percent of these voters said Israelis and 26 percent said Palestinians.

Antisemitism could be controlled by moderation of mass media such as newspapers an broadcast stations.

However, with social media, what matters is how many posters of each persuasion and the aggregate number of their followers.

Globally, there are a lot more Muslims than Jews, and Muslim posters have a larger aggregate following.

There are an estimated 5.25 billion smartphones in use globally.

Read it more carefully. It says that more than half have “more sympathy” for Palis than before. I personally have more sympathy for the Palis unwillingly used as human shields by Hamas. Not mush more because a lot of them are willing participants.
