(Newsweek) As protests engulf American universities over Israel’s response to an October 7 attack by Hamas, a Christian group behind a poll released Monday says it knows why Gen Z has a more favorable opinion of the terrorist group than do others: Israel is more powerful; thus, it’s the oppressor.
The poll, commissioned by Summit Ministries and conducted by Scott Rasmussen’s RMG Research, asked the question, “Do you believe that Israel’s wealth and military power make its campaign against Hamas unjust?”
The poll found that 58 percent of American voters don’t believe Israel’s wealth and power make their campaign unjust, though only 42 percent of those aged 18-24, who the pollsters refer [to] as Gen Z, agree. The poll shows that 47 percent of the group say Israel is unjust for the reason outlined, while roughly 11 percent said they were unsure.
